The Darker Side of Light: Arts of Privacy, 1850?1900 - a podcast by National Gallery of Art, Washington

September 2009, Behind the Scenes - Peter Parshall, curator, old master prints, National Gallery of Art, Washington. In the private worlds of late nineteenth-century Paris, London, and Berlin, prints depicting mysterious and beautiful subjects were created for those collectors who kept their treasures compiled in albums, locked in cabinets, or displayed in quiet rooms. In this podcast produced on the occasion of the exhibition The Darker Side of Light: Arts of Privacy, 1850?1900, Parshall talks to host Barbara Tempchin about these highly engaging, beguiling works.
