Exhibition Of Prints (Claghorn Collection) by William J. Clark, Jr. and W. S. Baker documents a Philadelphia exhibition of engravings, mezzotints, and etchings from the Claghorn Collection. Published under the auspices of the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts, the volume compiles the CRITICAL NOTICES and the Opening Address given for the December 1874–January 1875 display, together with commentary on engraving history and technique. Clark surveys the development of engraving from early German and Italian masters—Schongauer, Durer, Mantegna, Raimondi, Marc Antonio Raimondi—and traces its evolution through Dutch, French, and Flemish schools to Rembrandt, Rubens, and later contributors. The Opening Address by Baker frames engraving as a universal language that educates a broad public. The text also discusses line work, shading, stop-out, dry-pointing, etching, and mezzotint, and it emphasizes the role of prints in art education and in public access to masterpieces. The work stands as a historical record and a resource for students and connoisseurs of printmaking.
