Old Master Highlights from the Carlos Museum's Works on Paper Collection contains more than 4,000 prints, drawings, and photographs. Chronologically, it ranges from a thirteenth-century illuminated manuscript page to a twenty-first century monoprint. This exhibition presents prints and drawings from the sixteenth, seventeenth, and eighteenth centuries. The earliest works are engravings by three great printmakers of the early sixteenth century: Albrecht Dürer, Lucas van Leyden, and Marcantonio Raimondi. Also to be found are portraits of and by noted Netherlandish engravers of the latter half of the century, Philips Galle, Dirck Coornhert, and Hendrick Goltzius.
