While many of the works in the exhibition are etchings or woodcuts, the majority are engravings. Their exquisitely etched lines and controlled cross-hatchings changed the world of printmaking from a practice geared primarily to reproductions to that of fine art in its own right. On Sunday, Feb. 11, at 2 p.m., Maxwell will present a gallery talk on Old Master prints in the Museum. Her presentation is open to the public. The museum is located on Rugby Road, a short distance from the Rotunda, and a small parking lot behind the building is available to visitors.
Photographs are available.
