A History Of Engraving & Etching

Author: Arthur M. Hind
Pages: 487
Cover: Softbound
Dimensions: 5 1/2" x 9"
Item #: BK739
Price: $20.95
This book, formerly out of print for many years, continues to be the most complete history of etching and engraving that has yet been written; containing references to every etcher or engraver worthy of mention from the early 15th century to 1914. Included are 111 outstanding illustrations by scores of artists, and the processes and methods of the twin arts covering their every aspect - etching, tools, tone processes, and more. Following these is a text that is fabled for its richness of detail and the brilliance of its author's obvious genius for research and criticism. A massive index with over 2500 artists, their dates and brief biographical data is added for easy cross referencing, as well as a classified chronological list and bibliography. For the artist and historian, this book is a must. For everyone else, you'll be fascinated by this great historical work.
