This work delves into the historical significance and artistic contributions of various engravers and etchers, spanning from the Renaissance to modern times. Through multiple essays, it explores an array of artists, techniques, and the evolution of printmaking as an art form, inviting readers to appreciate the craftsmanship behind prints. The opening of the collection sets the tone with a preface from the editor, Fitzroy Carrington, who states that the essays are meant to be personal reflections from authors who share their profound love and knowledge of prints and their makers. It introduces the reader to the broad scope of the subject, beginning with key figures such as Albrecht Dürer and other influential engravers from Italy and beyond. The opening emphasizes the changing perceptions of prints over time and their growing appreciation among collectors and scholars, hinting at the rich narratives and artistic achievements that will unfold in the subsequent essays.
