Winner of an honorable mention in the 2017 IFPDA Book Award"It is a book which should be read by art historians in every field." - IFPDA Award Jury"This most recent publication is a welcome addition in a continuing reassessment of the value of prints in early modernity. ...These writers’ contributions highlight the abundant opportunities awaiting print scholars—not only for those who examine the reception of European prints in Spain and its territories, as the contributors in this volume have done, but also works produced by Hispanic engravers and artists destined for internal or external markets. As such, this is an edifying collection that offers its readers an expanded perspective of prints in the early modern period."- Renaissance Quarterly"Altogether these essays provide real and often new and important insights, full of information, on the role of prints as sources of works of art and of new visions within the global mobility of visual knowledge in the period between 1450 and 1750."- Print Quarterly"The volume boldly expands an existing dialogue in the field about the historical interchange between modern art-historical specializations, intersections between prints and other media: painting; decoration of luxury arms; scientific instrument designs – even their own literal transformation into such instruments."- Historians of Netherlandish Art Reviews
