The Architecture of Topography: a ‘kind of map-work’?

Spanning borders, periods and cultural perspectives, this display of prints and drawings explores the concept of topography: how a place is defined by a description of its significant physical features – be they geographical, natural or man-made. It features images from the Barber collection by artists as diverse as Fra Bartolommeo, Wenceslaus Hollar, Piranesi, JMW Turner and Max Klinger.

Display curated by Helen Cobby, Assistant Curator
