Montagu-Pollock, Montagu, Sir., bart., 1864- · 1903 · London : G. Bell · 5 pictures

Light and Water is a 1903 London study of optics by Sir Montagu Montagu-Pollock, published by G. Bell for readers interested in reflection and colour on rivers, lakes and seas. Its pictures are plain line diagrams and engravings of light rays bending at the surface of water, with lettered points and angle measures. A designer could borrow the clean geometric ray lines, the hatched ripple patterns and the stepped diagram layouts for technical or scientific graphics.
