Acerca de este libro electrónico

A comprehensive, beautifully illustrated and practical wood engraving manual.

Wood Engraving is an easily-followed, practical manual on wood engraving for beginners. Learn the processes of printing and engraving through clear explanations and use the lists of material requirements to help you get started. In this third, revised edition, discover up-to-date technique variations and all the tips and methods that the author has found helpful in 50 years as a practitioner.

Since, or so he says, how to do it cannot be separated from why you are doing it and what it is you think you are doing, the book also touches on the relation of wood engraving to art more generally, and is a companion not only to beginning but also to continuing in this historic art. A beautiful object in its own right and written by a master in the field, this book is a must have if you treasure fine wood engraving and the contribution Simon Brett has made to it.
