Contributions to the literature of the fine arts

Eastlake, Charles Lock, Sir, 1793-1865, author, Ker, H. Bellenden (Henry Bellenden), 1785?-1871, writer of preface · 1870 · London : John Murray · 6 pictures

A scholarly art-history volume published in London by John Murray in 1870, edited by Sir Charles Lock Eastlake with a preface by H. Bellenden Ker, aimed at students and connoisseurs of the fine arts. Its pictures are plain black line engravings of classical marble reliefs, showing horsemen and figures in rippling drapery with crisp hatching and clear outlines, useful to a designer studying how contour, folds and animated motion were rendered in ancient sculpture.
