FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

Winter’s Tenor January 21 – February 12

This January, The Old Print Gallery delves into the moods

and images of winter with a new show, entitled Winter’s

Tenor. Celebrating the hushed and pensive moments of

winter, this beautiful collection of

contemporary and early 20th

century prints explores the

transformation of mind, mood, and

landscape during this season. Some

peaceful and calm, others more

evocative of the mysterious and eerie nature of our darkest

months, these prints are a feast for the eyes and soul.

They capture the loneliness, the solitude, the simplicity but

also the hint of excitement- in the first snow fall, in the

ambitions and resolutions for a new year and a new start.

The show features work by Kerr Eby, Emily Trueblood, Edward Glannon, Rockwell

Kent, Louis Lozowick, Richard Sloat, Robert Kipniss, Martin Lewis, Peter

Gourfain, Albert W. Barker, Richard Florsheim, Otto Kuhler, Gerald Scheck,

Richard Pantell, and Michael Pellettieri.

To celebrate the opening, a free reception will be held on January 21, 2011, from 5-8pm.

The show will be on view at The Old Print Gallery, 1220 31st Street, NW,

a block up from M Street in Georgetown.

Hours are 10am - 5:30pm, Tuesday through Saturday.
