Bag om British Mezzotinto Portraits

British Mezzotinto Portraits: Being A Descriptive Catalogue, Accompanied By Biographical Notes is a book written by John Chaloner Smith in 1883. The book is a comprehensive catalogue of British mezzotint portraits, accompanied by biographical notes of the individuals depicted in the portraits. Mezzotint is a printing technique that creates tonal variations by roughening the surface of a metal plate, allowing for a range of dark and light tones in the printed image. The book features over 11,000 mezzotint portraits, ranging from the 17th to the 19th century, and includes information on the artists who created the prints and the individuals who were depicted in them. The biographical notes provide historical context for the portraits and offer insights into the lives of the people featured in them. This book is a valuable resource for art historians, collectors, and anyone interested in British history and portraiture.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
