Art and the formation of taste
Art and the formation of taste is a London art-appreciation book of 1882, written by Lucy Crane with Thomas Crane and illustrated by Walter Crane, aimed at general readers learning to judge painting and sculpture. Its pictures are black-and-white line engravings in framed plates, each captioned with an artist or artwork name, and a designer might take their clean outline work, rectangular framing, and caption lettering as models for simple monochrome plates.
