Lectures on art

Weekes, Henry, 1807-1877, Weekes, John Ernest · 1880 · London, Bickers and Son · 1 picture

Lectures on Art, a London book of 1880 by Henry Weekes and John Ernest Weekes, published by Bickers and Son for an audience of art students and general readers. The single picture is a woodcut-style floral ornament of honeysuckle blossoms and leaves arranged in a symmetrical downward-pointing cluster on a plain ground. A designer could take from it the flowing, interlocking botanical rhythm of historic ornament, useful for borders, initials and decorative motifs.
