Fifteenth- and Sixteenth-Century Prints from the Rosenwald Collection

About the exhibition

Saint John’s College presented Fifteenth- and Sixteenth-Century Prints from the Rosenwald Collection in 1971. The documented selection includes early European prints, with saints and religious narratives among the individually identified subjects. Exact surviving examples are Dirk Jacobsz Vellert’s The Deluge (1544; etching and engraving) and Albrecht Dürer’s Adam and Eve (1504; engraving on laid paper). The surviving museum histories establish only part of the checklist; exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
