Gravados do século XIX
The Ánxel Casal Library is offering its space to Santiago Losada, a library user and book collector, so that during Book Month we can enjoy some of the works from his Losada Díaz collection.
This exhibition features 15 selected pieces that showcase the evolution of illustration techniques from 1809 to 1916, including engraving, lithography, wood engraving, intaglio printing, and their variations. It includes illustrations by Alphonse de Neuville, Gustave Doré, Charles Knight, Jules Girardet, and Randolph Caldecott, among others.
It can be visited on the ground floor during the library's opening hours.
