English Wood-Engraving 1900-1950 by Thomas Balston
At the turn of the 20th century the art of wood-engraving enjoyed a flourishing revival among English artists. This volume showcases five decades' worth of magnificent black-and-white illustrations, with finely wrought images ranging from scenes of animals and rural life to episodes from literature. An informative history of the art is included.
A scion of the Whatman papermaking family, Thomas Balston (1883–1967) was a director of the Duckworth & Company publishers and a noted scholar of English book production and illustration.
