This exhibition will include a selection of drawings made by Northern artists visiting Italy in the eighteenth century. Some were attracted by the crumbling ruins of well-known ancient buildings like the Colosseum, while others were drawn to more anonymous corners of the verdant countryside. Also on display will be a recently acquired pastel study of a French Dragoon by Anne-Louis Girodet-Trioson (French, 1767鈥�1824) for "The Revolt of Cairo," shown with other military-themed images from the Revolutionary and Napoleonic periods.

From sixteenth-century Germany there will be a group of chiaroscuro woodcuts including, Hans Baldung's (German, 1484/85鈥�1545) monumental The Fall of Man and Hans Burgkmair's (German, 1473鈥�1531) evocative Lovers Surprised by Death, which demonstrate how artists experimented with color to create tonality in woodcuts. On display from the nineteenth century will be a selection of prints depicting women with birds, including works by Mary Cassatt (American, 1844鈥�1926) and Paul Gauguin (French, 1848鈥�1903); a group of Art Nouveau drawings, including a fan design by Alphonse Mucha (Czech, 1860鈥�1939); and a series of lithographic views of the Imperial Palaces of Saint Petersburg from about 1850. Also on view will be a group of World War I posters that focus on the ever-changing image of the Statue of Liberty; and, two sets of World War II trading cards including the gruesome Horrors of War (1938), which were donated by Jefferson R. Burdick.
