Showing rarely seen works from the Dallas Museum of Art’s collection, "Nature and Artifice: Works on Paper from Dürer to Rembrandt" explores confrontations between humans and the natural world. The works in the exhibition chart the transformations in landscape images from highly imaginative pictorial worlds of the 15th century to pastoral scenes of country life in the 17th century. Northern European artists in this period were renowned for their careful attention to nature, which they translated into intricate compositions that reveal shifting attitudes toward the natural world.

The exhibition will remain on display through July 28.
