Legion of Honor visit to Achenbach print archive

The Achenbach Foundation for Graphic Arts has in its collection more than 90,000 works of art on paper including prints, drawings, photographs and artist books. Students were able to notify the curator with a list of prints we wanted pulled from the archive, which we were able to view in the seminar room. One print in particular I have always been fond of is The Great Wave off Kanagawa. It was a great experience to be able to view an original addition of the print in person.
