Friday 19 October, 1pm - 2pm, free

The early Royal Society was much concerned with engraving and
printing - both as a technical discipline and a practical tool for
illustration and publication - yet we seem to know little about the
artists involved, not least with the most enduring images of the
Society’s early work, the plates from Hooke’s ’Micrographia’.

Speaker: Dr Jim Bennett, Museum of the History of Science, University of Oxford
Venue: The Royal Society Library, 7 Carlton House Terrace, London, SW1Y 5AG
