Life and Letters of Samuel Palmer, Painter and Etcher
ISBN: 9781108009164 / Angielski / Miękka / 476 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The work of Samuel Palmer (1805 1881) received mixed critical success during his lifetime, and his later life was overshadowed by the death of his elder son.

Palmer, who later, in 1909, burned large quantities of his father's sketchbooks and notebooks. The...

Wood-Engraving: A Manual of Instruction
ISBN: 9781108009089 / Angielski / Miękka / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. William James Linton (1812 1897) was a wood-engraver, poet, prose writer and political activist, who first worked in London but emigrated to the United States in 1866. He began his wood-engraving apprenticeship at the age of sixteen under the well-known London engraver G. W. Bonner.

The publication of this book in 1884 marked the culmination...
