SummaryTable of Contents
This fascinating volume examines the developments in British printmaking which started in the middle of the 19th century with the Etching Revival and continued into the middle of the 20th century with the experimental work carried out at Corsham and St Ives in the 1950s.

The emphasis of the accompanying essays is on the development of printmaking techniques through the century, and the ways in which new methods enabled artists to develop their ideas and means of expression.

An A-Z of artists includes biographies and reference material for over 400 key printmakers, all of whom are represented by at least one illustration. This book is an essential, magnificently illustrated and readable work of reference for collectors and all those with a love of prints.
