The Prints of Rockwell Kent: Selections from the Ralf C. Nemec Collection

• Through Sunday, July 6
• Biggs Museum of American Art, Dover, DE

Artist and activist Rockwell Kent (1882-1971) was a household name. Best-known for his iconic images of the earth’s harsh and frozen extremities, Kent often explored the relationship between humans and nature. As an author, he published thrilling accounts of his own expeditions to Newfoundland, Alaska, Tierra del Fuego, and Greenland. As an illustrator, he created editions of literary classics like the Old English epic Beowulf, Walt Whitman’s Leaves of Grass, and Herman Melville’s Moby Dick. This exhibition showcases selections from the Ralf C. Nemec Collection, the largest assemblage of Kent’s prints in the world.
