Life of Henry Fawcett

Stephen, Leslie, Sir, 1832-1904 · 1886 · London, Smith, Elder & co. · 2 pictures

A biography of the British politician and economist Henry Fawcett, written by Leslie Stephen and published in London by Smith, Elder & Co. in 1886 for a general reading public. Its pictures are engraved portraits of Fawcett, one showing a seated man in a heavy tweed jacket with a pocket square, the other a standing man with arms folded in a frock coat and cravat; a designer might take from them the tonal crosshatching typical of nineteenth-century portrait engraving and its formal, dignified poses.
