The child's picture scrap book : containing upwards of four hundred illustrations
A London and New York picture book of 1865 from George Routledge and Sons, gathering over four hundred wood engravings by Gilbert, Watson, Wolf and Coleman for children, covering nature, amusements, stories and verse. The engravings are crisp hatched black-and-white scenes of birds, a chameleon, sailors on a rocky shore and knights in a tent, offering a designer clear models for quick narrative vignettes with dense cross-hatched shading.
