Commercially produced art prints

 File — Box: 43, Folder: 5

Scope and Contents

From the Series:

This series includes approximately 1,800 mass-produced monochromatic art reproductions on paper. They were presumably used for reference purposes by Oakley and/or Emerson, and possibly for teaching art history classes at Cogslea and/or the Agnes Irwin School. The prints repeat many of the same artistic movements and artists depicted in the lantern slide series. Taken together, they show the corpus of images the women referred to in the course of their artistic and/or teaching careers.
