ART: Marvel at the Old Masters at the Butler

My husband and I are big fans of the famous German woodblock print artist Albrecht Dürer so when I saw this post on Facebook, I knew we wanted to catch this exhibit at the beautiful Butler Museum of Art on Wick Ave. in Youngstown, Ohio. 

This exhibit is the Meszaros Gallery, located on the lower level.

There is an elevator across from the Fine Arts Gift Shop, so don’t let the steps deter you from viewing this awe-inspiring collection. 

If you’ve never been in the Meszaros Gallery before, don’t be deterred because it looks like you got lost and ended up in the file cabinet room. Give it a chance and you will be struck by the serene, muted, understated atmosphere that allows you to immerse yourself completely in the artwork in front of you. 

Do take a moment to sit on the bench and let the Old Masters speak to you.

 

The exhibit runs through August 4, 2024 and gives us a glimpse into the art and times of these three influential masters and the history of the world around them.
