October 21, 2017 - March 11, 2018, Mikkel museum By the mid-16th century, Mannerism had become the prevailing art style in Europe, and Rome was its most prominent art centre. Through printed art, news of the new art reached the broader public. The exhibition examines the role of printed graphic art as the populariser of examples and the harmoniser of pictorial language.
