Overview: 110 drawings of architectural projects by Andrea Palladio and 20 works by contemporaries and followers were selected by Douglas Lewis, National Gallery curator of sculpture. Shown also were first editions of Quattro Libri, 1570, which made Palladio the most imitated architect in history.

Organization: The exhibition was organized by the International Exhibitions Foundation to mark the 400th anniversary of Palladio's death. Gaillard Ravenel and Mark Leithauser designed the exhibition and Gordon Anson designed the lighting for the National Gallery.

Sponsor: The project was supported by an indemnity from the Federal Council on the Arts and the Humanities, and by grants from the National Endowment for the Arts and Fiat S.p.A., Turin, Italy. The catalogue was underwritten in part by the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation.
