A practical manual of wood engraving : with a brief account of the history of the art
A practical manual on wood engraving by William Norman Brown, published in London by C. Lockwood and Co. in 1886, aimed at practising engravers and students of the craft. The pictures are plain line illustrations of tools and objects: a pointed graver with its cut facets, a dense study of foliage and branches, and two shaded metal vessels, one a tapered bowl and one a deep pan with a handle, showing how engraved hatching builds up form and tone.
