Etching and mezzotint engraving : lectures delivered at Oxford
A technical treatise on etching and mezzotint, a set of lectures given at Oxford and published in London and New York in 1892 by Macmillan, written by the painter Hubert von Herkomer for students of printmaking. The pictures are tonal prints: a seated figure leaning over a table with a faint smoky spirit above, a rotated woodcut-style workman at a bench, a woman's head and shoulders with a dark mass of hair, and a crowded group with a guitar, showing how soft shading and dense blacks build form in the plate.
