Victorian Illustrated Books, 1850-70: Heyday of Wood-engraving Book

The 1860s saw a veritable explosion in British publishing and illustration when many of the greatest Victorian artists created memorable designs for poetry, novels, children's books and religious literature. In this study, Paul Goldman reviews the work of renowned Pre-Raphaelites like Millais and Rossetti and also of unjustifiably neglected artists such as G. J. Pinwell and Thomas Morten. The richness and variety of the Sixties is demonstrated in over 90 illustrations which show some well-known names such as George du Maurier in an unexpected light and include fascinating examples of early drawings by Edward Burne-Jones and work by such diverse artists as Poynter, Leighton, Whistler and Charles Keene.Read More
