Koleksi karya engraving/plates pilihan yg paling mashok. Saya nggak bisa membayangkan bagaimana orang-orang jaman dulu dalam menggarapnya. Dedikasi untuk detail dan seninya bukan main-main; bisa dilihat dari setiap goresan di masing-masing layernya. Sangat rekomen buat yg menyukai karya 'old prints' dengan teknik etching, cross hatching, dan line engraving. Sekalian buat referensi belajar (manual lho, bukan digital)

One of the most amazing Art exhibitions I have ever seen. The most concise and detailed collection of engravings I have ever seen, including displays of the tools and plates relating to the engraving/intaglio process.
