Description:In the production of illustrated books, the artist's drawing is but a preliminary step; the actual printing is often--though not always--carried off by other hands. Taking as its scope the full breadth of printed book illustration from the 16th to the 20th century, "Drawings for Book Illustration" documents the influence exerted by such artists as Peter Paul Rubens, Eugene Delacroix, and Alexander Calder on both the aesthetics of the book and the technologies of the press. With thorough descriptions of the lives and works of the artists, and illustrated with sumptious duotone renderings of both preliminary sketches and finished printed designs, Becker's catalogue is a handy guide to this fundamental aspect of the history of the graphic arts.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
