Critical papers in art ; Stubb's calender ; Barber Cox
This is a critical essay collection by William Makepeace Thackeray, published in London and New York by Macmillan in 1904, drawn from his writings on art and on George Cruikshank's work. The pictures are rotated line engravings of crowded street and stage scenes with many small figures in dense groups, and a designer might take from them their tight crowd compositions, lively gesture and hatched shading that suggests light and depth without tone.
