This rare book constitutes the definitive guide to the artists of the Dutch and German schools of etching. It was originally published in 1880 and written by Philip Gilbert Hamerton. A comprehensive and insightful treatise on the subject, this book is a veritable must-have for students of art, and it would make for a great addition to collections of allied literature. Contents include: Etching Compared with Other Arts, Difficulties and Facilities of Etching, The Popular Estimate of Etching, The Influence of Connoisseurship, Criticism and Practical Work, Favourable and Unfavourable Artistic Conditions, Comprehensiveness, and Abstraction. This text also covers many of the most influential etchers, including: Goya, Zeeman, Jongkind, Van S’gravesande, Canaletti, Ruysdael, and many others. Philip Gilbert Hamerton was an English author, artist and art critic. Elected for modern republication due to its immense education and historic value, this vintage book is being republished now complete with a specially commissioned new biography of the author.
