Historic churches of America : their romance and their history : An art work illustrated by etchings, photogravures and other reproductions from original drawings for this publication, by artists of reputation; together with over two hundred smaller engravings necessary to the plan of the work
An 1890 Philadelphia art book by H.L. Everett on historic American churches, illustrated with etchings, photogravures and smaller engravings made from original drawings by contemporary artists for the general reader. The pictures are tonal etchings in sepia and grey, mostly architectural views of church exteriors set on pale mounts with plain margins, with a few interior and genre scenes. A designer could take from them the restrained monochrome palette, the hatched line shading and the framing of single buildings on blank paper.
