Gods and devils of mankind : the whole dark picture strikingly contrasted with the beauty and purity of revealed religion / by Frank S. Dobbins ; assisted by Hon. S. Wells Williams
Gods and Devils of Mankind is an 1897 illustrated survey of world religions by Frank S. Dobbins, assisted by S. Wells Williams, published in an unnamed place and aimed at readers comparing pagan worship with Christianity. The engravings are rotated black-and-white wood engravings showing ritual scenes, carved idols, and processions. A designer might take from them the dense crowded compositions, flat hatched shading, and the contrast between figures in the foreground and background architecture.
