Abstract

"this book celebrates the riches of the Australian prints and drawings collection of the National Gallery of Victoria. Collecting began in the 1860s, the Gallery's first decade of operation, and has continued over the subsequent 140 years, with holdings today numbering some seven thousand items. The collection now documents, in great deapth and with works of outstanding quality, the development of the graphic arts in Australia over the two centries since European settlement." Gerard Vaughn, Director.
