Millais's illustrations, a collection of drawings on wood
A collection of wood-engraved book illustrations by the painter John Everett Millais, published in London and New York by A. Strahan in 1866 and aimed at readers of Victorian fiction and magazines. The pictures are fine black-and-white line engravings of interiors and figures in mid-nineteenth-century dress, with hatched shading and generous white margins that a designer could take as a model for quiet, tonal editorial layout.
