The unfinished print
de Peter W. Parshall, Stacey Sell, Judith Brodie, National Gallery of Art (U. S.)
"When does a work of art achieve aesthetic resolution? Artists, collectors, and theorists since the Renaissance have been intrigued by this question in their attempt to understand the artistic endeavor. Prints claim a special place in this history. The Unfinished Print investigates the changing taste for prints that reveal the traces of their making, a subject never before considered across its full historical sweep, from the fifteenth to the early twentieth century."--BOOK JACKET.
