When the tide went out, most of the etchers once acclaimed were forgotten along with their prints--but some were more forgotten than others. Etched in Memory seeks to understand the process whereby some producers of culture but not others come to be considered worth remembering. Through a combination of masterful sleuthing and analytical rigor, Gladys Engel Lang and Kurt Lang bring to light the lives and artistic careers of 126 British and 160 American etchers, equally divided between men and women.
