The National Gallery of Scotland has put together an exhibition featuring some of the most iconic prints of the past 500 years created by many of Europe’s finest artists. This group of artists includes masters Rembrandt van Rijn, Francisco Goya and Albrecht Dürer. According to the exhibition’s website, “the 30 works on display have been selected not only for their exquisite beauty, but also to trace the development of printmaking techniques over the centuries, and to demonstrate the sophisticated processes that led to their creation.”
