Notes
In 15th-century Europe, the invention of the printed image coincided with both the wide availability of paper and the invention
of moveable type in the West. A new print publishing industry developed in order to produce exactly repeatable images in woodcut
or engraving and make them available on a scale never before deemed possible. Printed images, including maps, political broadsides,
and devotional, anatomical and allegorical prints, were now widely available to the public, and the print would become an
increasingly important artistic medium during the ensuing centuries.
Scope and Content
The Grunwald Center for the Graphic Arts at the UCLA Hammer Museum is renowned for its splendid holdings of over 5,500 European
prints and drawings dating from the 15th to the 18th centuries. The following collection guide includes a selection of prints
from these holdings and is based on "Inventing the Print: 1500-1800," an exhibition organized by the Center in 2003.
The collection guide is arranged by artist nationality and period. Over fifty artists are represented, including Albrecht
Durer, Rembrandt van Rijn, Andrea Mantegna, Jacques Callot, Hendrik Goltzius, Jacques Bellange, Canaletto, Giovanni Battista
Piranesi, and Jusepe de Ribera.

Scope and Content
Beginning during the late seventeenth century and continuing throughout the eighteenth, an interest in reproducing the color
and tonal variations of painting led to the development of new techniques. Mezzotint, a process involving working in tonal
areas from dark to light, began to be used extensively in England as the favorite medium for portrait prints.

This print is one of a series of thirteen landscapes after Pieter Bruegel published by Hieronymus Cock. The series, dated
about 1555-56, was one of the earliest collaborations between Bruegel and Cock. Each print in the series depicts a sweeping
"universal landscape" with a narrative scene in the foreground. In this case the scene depicts a bird catcher returning from
the hunt with a load of birds. In fifteenth- and sixteenth-century German prints, the motif of the bird catcher with his trap
symbolizes the Devil, who sets a trap to snare human souls. The title of the print implies that the subject has this meaning
as well. The allegorical meaning of the print is, however, secondary to Bruegel's interest in illustrating sweeping vistas
with views of high mountains and the sea.

hunting; birds; landscapes (representations); valleys (landforms)

The obelisk that anchors the composition had a particular association for the seventeenth-century Dutchman. Obelisks such
as this marked the boundaries of a city's jurisdiction, delineating the division between town and countryside. The obelisk
in this print was identified by Lugt (Wandelingen met Rembrandt in en om Amsterdam, 1915, p. 153) as one near Spieringerhorn
on the road between Amsterdam and Haarlem.

Scope and Content
Woodcut was the earliest printmaking medium to be widely used, primarily for devotional religious images or playing cards,
often colored by hand or with stencils. By the end of the fifteenth century major artists began to explore the woodcut's more
sophisticated artistic potential. Albrecht Durer was one of the first and greatest artists to recognize the capacity of prints
to create a broad market for works of art. He created complex and highly finished designs in both woodcut and engraving. His
series of woodcuts of 1496-98 of scenes from the Apocalypse are large, dynamic full-sheet compositions, some freely combining
events from different chapters of the book rather than closely following the text.

Notes
This engraving is based on Rosso's drawing of 1530 made for Pietro Aretino, possibly as a presentation piece for King Francis
I of France. As such, the design can be viewed as an elegant, virtuoso display of Rosso's artistry, underscoring his willingness
to be called to the King's court. Many complex readings have been attached to this long popular theme celebrating romantic
love; one interpretation is that the king, as Mars, has abandoned war to devote himself to the peaceful pursuit of the arts
and love, symbolized by Venus.

Notes
In the eighteenth century Rome and Venice were essential stops on the Grand Tour of Europe, leading to increased demand for
printed views of those cities. In response to this demand, Canaletto published a set of thirty-one views of Venice and its
surroundings, dedicated and probably financed by Joseph Smith, British consul in Venice. Canaletto's views comprise both actual
vistas and imaginary evocations. Mestre is a harbor just outside Venice.
