The Art journal
The Art Journal is a London periodical published by George Virtue in 1849 for an audience of artists, collectors and art-minded readers, as its subject heading suggests. Its engravings are black-and-white landscape and scenic prints, such as a river valley under storm light, a tall waterfall, a canyon mouth with pines, and a rock formation under a moon, offering designers compositional models for dramatic natural scenery with strong contrast of light and dark.
