ART FOR THE PEOPLE
A History of Illustration Techniques in Books and Popular Media
presented by
Robin Potter Nolasco
September 14, 2023
1 p.m. (EDT)
Join us as we showcase notable materials from the department of Special Collections that were once printed to be distributed widely, such as popular books, children’s primers, broadsides and pamphlets, and posters and advertisements.
Special Collections Librarian Robin Potter Nolasco will discuss the history of illustration printing techniques and their many uses to make and reproduce images. Robin will also explore the ways images were used alongside texts to influence, entertain, and inspire the public.
