The Magazine of art
The Magazine of Art is an illustrated periodical of 1878, published in London and New York by Cassell, Petter & Galpin for a general readership interested in the fine arts. The pictures are black-and-white wood engravings, several printed sideways on the page, and they cover subjects from hunting scenes to domestic and architectural interiors. A designer could take from them the dense cross-hatching of engraved tone, the carved ornament of the ceiling and corbel details, and the compositions of horsemen against open landscape.
