Master ND
Master ND worked in the chiaroscuro woodcut tradition of the mid-sixteenth century, cutting designs across multiple blocks to build tone and depth, and also produced single-block woodcuts that rely on line alone. The two sheets held here, both titled Massacre of the Innocents, represent these two approaches: one printed from three blocks in green, dark green and black, the other a key block only. Dating to 1544, the impressions in this collection may include later printings up to that year.
