Tuesday 27 October 2026 | Drop in 1pm-3pm | Library & Archives Reading Room
Engraved frontispieces emerged in early modern Europe as gateways to books.
Produced by skilled engravers, they combined portraiture, allegory, and decorative design to signal a work’s themes, prestige, and authorship. Step through the frontispiece, and discover how a single image can open the door to an entire narrative.
This is a free drop-in event; no booking is required
