'This catalogue is one of ten published on the occasion of the exhibition, Manufacturing Meaning: the Victoria University of Wellington Art Collection in context. It documents and explains the contribution of guest curator, David Maskill to the project. Maskill brings together Peter Peryer's photograph, After Rembrandt 1995, with its source, The shell, an etching by Rembrandt van Rijn, in order to explore the ramifications of the depiction of the natural world by artists working in different historical and geographical locations.'
