"In this talk, Senior Lecturer in Art History at Victoria University of Wellington David Maskill looks at how Te Papa’s collections have come to be so rich in British prints from The Etching Revival. In particular, Maskill examines the roles of the Wellington collector, Sir John Ilott (1884-1973), and the London dealer Harold Wright (1885-1961) in the formation of the collection.
Art History in Practice is a regular series of seminars showcasing the ‘work’ of art history in which established and emerging art historians working inside and outside the academy present on their current and recent research."
