Ready to Use Old Fashioned Silhouettes by Carol Belanger Grafton

Bold, eye-catching, often witty and whimsical -- silhouettes offer graphic artists a rich source of attention-getting motifs with antique flair. This collection includes over 400 old-fashioned silhouettes, all royalty-free, featuring finely detailed male and female profiles, elegantly clad couples, nimble-footed nymphs, children at play, a menagerie of wild and domesticated animals, diverse modes of transportation (horse and buggy, balloon, bicycle, plane, boat), and a delightful alphabet composed of leaning, sitting, and standing human figures. Ideal for enhancing greeting cards, announcements, posters, advertisements, and much more, these crisp black-and-white cuts, printed on repro-quality stock, will be a welcome addition to any working library.

French illustrator Gustave Doré (1833-83) began his prolific career at the age of 15, and his dramatic engravings have exercised an incalculable influence over latter-day artists. The remarkable scope of his work ranges from Milton, Dante, and the Bible to Rabelais, Shakespeare, and street scenes of 19th-century London.
