The Rise of Print: Rembrandt & Company

MUSKEGON, MI — The Muskegon Museum of Art presents The Rise of Print: Rembrandt & Company starting September 15 through March 19, 2023. The exhibition features works by the masters of 14th – 17th century printmaking, such as Lucas Cranach, Albrecht Dürer, Hans Holbein, and Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn.

During the 14th to 17th centuries, Northern and Italian Renaissances in Europe saw a new birth in learning, politics, and culture. One of the most notable outcomes was the rise of print as a form of art, establishing artists such as Lucas Cranach, Albrecht Dürer, Hans Holbein, and Rembrandt Harmensz van Rijn as printmaking masters.

On display will be works created by the printmaking masters of the time. “The Rise of Print: Rembrandt & Company” displays a visual record of the growing complexity in skill and concept in Renaissance printmaking.

An Opening Reception will be held at the Muskegon Museum of Art on Thursday, September 8 at 5 PM with an Artist Talk at 6 PM.
