Selections from the Rosenwald Collection

About the exhibition

The National Gallery of Art presented selections from the Rosenwald Collection in 1943–1944. The documented works span early European printmaking, nineteenth-century lithography and drawings, and twentieth-century graphic art. Examples securely identified in the museum’s object histories are Lucas van Leyden’s Jezebel and Ahab (1517/1518; woodcut) and Albrecht Altdorfer’s The Last Supper (c. 1513; woodcut on laid paper). The connected works form a partial checklist; exact opening and closing days are not established by this evidence.
