Book Description
Excerpt from Modern Etchings and Their Collectors Last but not least, to a friend, who at my request has written the Introductory Chapter to this book, who is a lover of fine prints, and who has frequently helped me with advice on matters relating to them. The photogravure process which has been used for the illustrations was considered the most suitable for the particular etchings which have been reproduced. NO mechanical process can approximate original work. It would be lamentable if it did. This process, however, gives some idea Of the beauty of the originals without detracting from the skill of the Artists by too closely resembling original work.

Collecting Prints, Posters, and Ephemera
Author: Ruth E. IskinPublisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1501338501
Category : Art
Languages : en
Pages : 308
Book Description
Why did collectors seek out posters and collect ephemera during the late-nineteenth and the twentieth centuries? How have such materials been integrated into institutional collections today? What inspired collectors to build significant holdings of works from cultures other than their own? And what are the issues facing curators and collectors of digital ephemera today? These are among the questions tackled in this volume-the first to examine the practices of collecting prints, posters, and ephemera during the modern and contemporary periods. A wide range of case studies feature collections of printed materials from the United States, Latin America, France, Germany, Great Britain, China, Japan, Russia, Iran, and Cuba. Fourteen essays and one roundtable discussion, all specially commissioned from art historians, curators, and collectors for this volume, explore key issues such as the roles of class, politics, and gender, and address historical contexts, social roles, value, and national and transnational aspects of collecting practices. The global scope highlights cross-cultural connections and contributes to a new understanding of the place of prints, posters and ephemera within an increasingly international art world.
