The View from the Water’s Edge: Early Modern Dutch Landscape at the Baltimore Museum of Art

Water transformed the landscape of the newly formed Dutch Republic in the 17th century, shaping the region’s environment alongside its economy, politics, and culture. Central to these developments was the meeting of land and water—the water’s edge—which provided artists with an immeasurable source of inspiration. This talk examines the prints, drawings, and paintings featured in a forthcoming exhibition at the Baltimore Museum of Art that explores the role of water and landscape in defining the early modern Dutch Republic.

When Degas makes prints, “plate and man are flattened together by his printing press, its mechanism having swallowed him completely"

Presented by Print Council of America.

This lecture will shed new light on Degas’s heterogeneous printmaking practice
and his fascination with its materials, techniques, and tools. These pictures offer important insight into the artist’s persistent efforts to expand the conventional limits of pictorial illusionism, his frequent intertwining of motif and making, and the central but little-understood role of technical and material experimentation in his larger corpus.
