Abstract

Rarities and antiquarian prints held in Mason Libraries’ Special Collections and Archives include examples of musical iconography and similar graphic materials that illustrate aspects of music, dance, and theater history or exemplify technical developments. This exhibit comprises photographic enlargements of twelve selected items in these genres, including engravings, lithographs, photographs, and drawings. Exhibit labels displayed with each image provide identification and historical context.
