Wood Engravings From the Collection

Wood Engravings From the Collection


The exhibition will present 14 wood engravings from the museum’s permanent collection. The wood engraving process is one that typically yields works of a delicate nature, often moving gracefully from one tone to another. Works in the exhibition draw from the vast holdings of American and European prints which are the focus of the museum’s collection. The works present an overview of the wood engraving process during the 20 century, from Rockwell Kent’s 1928 image Flame, to Siri Beckman’s 1993 Mist in the Valley.
