On Thursday, November 11, the Rose Library will host a virtual event, “History of Illustrations and Early Printmaking in Europe,” the sixth event in our Bound with History: Encounters with the Rose Library’s Collections Series, from 5-6:10 p.m.
Dr. Robert Gaynes from Emory University and Dr. Kylie Fisher from Furman University will cover the history of illustrations and early printmaking in Europe. Dr. Fisher will speak about the origins of the printed image in early modern Europe. Dr. Gaynes’ talk will focus on the illustrations printed in Andreas Vesalius’ De Humani Corporis Fabrica (1543). As this is a virtual event, a short slide show of relevant items from the Rose Library’s collection will be shown.
