Graphic prints

Here you will find a large and impressive range of European printing art: woodcuts, copperplates, steel engraving and lithographies, most from the 17th to 19th centuries. You will also find modern graphics with links to the region and by artists from Lower Franconia. The Brod collection contains a variety of graphics, posters, maps and photographs depicting Franconia and Würzburg in particular.
