Cabinet des estampes et des dessins (Strasbourg)

The Cabinet des estampes et des dessins (Print Room) is a museum in Strasbourg in the Bas-Rhin department of France. It is dedicated to engravings (estampes) and drawings (dessins), but also woodcuts and lithographies, covering a period of five centuries from the 14th to the 19th. Graphic art since 1870 is displayed in the Musée d'art moderne et contemporain. P. Jean-Baptiste Bradel is one of the many artists whose work is featured.

The collection, now counting over 200,000 pieces, was founded in 1890 by Wilhelm von Bode during his rebuilding and reorganisation of the city's art collections.
