About This Book

A family memoir and professional chronicle by a member of a long-running engraving firm, recounting the brothers' origins, training, and evolution in the craft. It combines technical discussion of wood engraving and emerging photographic and half-tone reproduction methods with reproduced letters from artists praising the firm's work, plates of representative engravings, and a compiled catalogue of illustrated books produced or supervised by the studio. The volume also documents the printing office, the firm's pupils, and includes indexes and notes to illustrate five decades of practical and artistic activity.
