The Associated Press: Masters' drawings in `Codex Resta' restored

The Associated Press: Masters' drawings in `Codex Resta' restored: "MILAN — The historic Biblioteca Ambrosiana on Tuesday unveiled 280 drawings by such masters as Raphael and Leonardo da Vinci collected by a 17th-century friar that have just returned from a Florence studio where they were restored for years. The so-called 'Codex Resta,' a collection of drawings named for the friar Sebastiano Resta who assembled it, was returned to the library this week in five specially designed crates — seven years after the volume made the journey to Florence in a trolley suitcase."
