A Legacy in Landscapes pays tribute to a bequest made in 1992 to the Print Collection of The New York Public Library for the purchase of landscape prints. The more than 100 prints in this exhibition were acquired through funds bequeathed by a generous donor and dedicated volunteer, Mary W. Covington, in honor of Elizabeth E. Roth, the Library's Curator of Prints from 1968 to 1981. Among the prints on view, ranging in date from the early 16th century through 2001, paralleling the scope of the Print Collection, will be work by Giovanni Benedetto Castiglione, Jean-Honoré Fragonard, Caspar David Friedrich, Eugène Delacroix, Camille Pissarro, Edvard Munch, Salvador Dalí, Alex Katz, Sylvia Plimack Mangold, Marcus Raetz, and Jorge Pardo.
