Still Life: Depicting Nature from Woodcuts to X-Rays

Still Life: Depicting Nature from Woodcuts to X-Rays
From the carved woodblocks of the early modern period to the new technique of X-Rays in the twentieth century, the exhibition Still Life reveals how different methods of representing nature have furthered our understanding and knowledge of the natural world. The exhibition showcases manuscripts, rare books, specimens, and rare books from our collections that indicate the many techniques that have been used to depict nature in the last five centuries: woodcuts, engravings, drawings, paintings, nature printing, dried specimens, photographs, X-rays, and finally digital art.
