A survey of old masters

The Finish (L’arrivee) 1894, lithograph, 13 5/8 x 20 ¼ inches, by Louis Anquetin (French, 1861-1932)

WEST PALM BEACH, FL (PNAN) – Currently on view through Sunday, August 11, 2024 at the Norton Museum of Art, this exhibition, The Paper Trail: 500 Years of Prints from the Jonathan “Jack” Frost Collection” of prints spans nearly five centuries of European and American printmaking. It features artists from Old Masters Albrecht Dürer, Anthony Van Dyck, Rembrandt, and David Teniers II, to Modern masters like Paul Gauguin, Hannah Höch, Franz Marc, and Marc Chagall.

Also showing in this chronological installation are works by lesser-known artists who possess equally impressive technical skill, which not only provides a broad survey of printmaking’s simultaneous developments across Europe and the United States, but also elaborates on specific themes, like allegories and the notion of the painter-engraver.
