Der Holzschnitt
Der Holzschnitt by Max Osborn, published in Bielefeld and Leipzig by Velhagen & Klassing in 1905, is a German art-historical survey of the wood-engraving technique written for readers interested in printmaking. The pictures are black-and-white reproductions of historic woodcuts showing crowded street scenes, alchemists at work, a witches' sabbath, and a man at a table, with dense hatching and strong contrast that a designer could study for bold graphic line work.
