The exhibition March in Time centers on two large-scale prints from the sixteenth century, Albrecht Durer’s The Triumphal Car of Emperor Maximilian I and Georg Lang’s Entry of Archduke Ernest into Nuremberg in 1593, and explores the form and function of parades and processions throughout history. Traditionally, parades celebrated victorious armies, mourned losses, and marked special occasions. In the twenty-first century, parades continue to have military associations, though their use has evolved to include other occasions such as weddings, funerals, public holidays, and sports championships.
