SUMMARY:New Theories on the Oldest American Woodcut: The Portrait of Richard Mather by John Foster\, ca. 1670
DESCRIPTION:To celebrate the 350th anniversary of the oldest surviving print from Colonial America\, we have assembled all five extent copies of the portrait of the Reverend Richard Mather (1596-1669) to compare them. Never exhibited together in a physical gallery\, this virtual presentation will help to address the many unanswered questions surrounding the five woodcuts\, such as why is his shoulder so uneven? When were they actually printed? And what was the purpose of the picture? \nPrinceton University Library is fortunate to own one of these rare impressions. With our sincere thanks\, the other copies are shown courtesy of the American Antiquarian Society; Houghton Library\, Harvard University; Massachusetts Historical Society\, and the Tracy W. McGregor Library of American History\, University of Virginia. \nPlease join us for a live zoom presentation with Julie Mellby\, Graphic Arts Curator\, Princeton University Library\, followed by a conversation with Caroline Duroselle-Melish\, Andrew W. Mellon Curator of Early Modern Books and Prints and Associate Librarian for Collection Care and Development\, Folger Shakespeare Library. \nQuestions are welcome during the talk or in advance to jmellby@princeton.edu. \nA zoom link will be provided after registration here. \nTo request accommodations for this event\, please contact pulcomm@princeton.edu at least 3 working days in advance.
