Print Collection Catalogue Catalogue - Armagh Robinson Library & No 5

Armagh Robinson Library holds an impressive group of over 4,400 prints known as The Rokeby Collection.

It is one of the great art collections in Northern Ireland and was left to the Library by its founder Archbishop Richard Robinson, first Baron Rokeby of Armagh (1708-1794).

The Rokeby Collection is a rare example of an intact eighteenth-century print collection. The prints are particularly significant as the majority have not been pasted and bound into albums, as is common in other collections of the period.

The collection includes masterpieces of printmaking produced across Europe between the sixteenth and eighteenth centuries, including prints by Goltzius, Mellan, Nanteuil, Piranesi, and Hogarth.
