Multiple Images:
Reproducing Academic Art
1850–1900

Thursday, June 6

Academic paintings were among the most
well-know of all images in the nineteenth
century because they were widely reproduced
and disseminated. Donato Esposito, PhD recounts the successive methods of reproduction from
the ‘traditional’ engraving, which reproduced the works of Ingres and his contemporaries, to the rise
of photography and later photogravure, which challenged traditional printmaking techniques.
