The men of 1830

Wickenden, Robert J · 1914 · Boston : Published for Museum of Fine Arts, Boston by Houghton Mifflin · 15 pictures

A 1914 art book published in Boston by Houghton Mifflin for the Museum of Fine Arts, written by Robert J. Wickenden, presenting French Romantic printmakers of the 1830 generation through reproduced lithographs with captions giving the original sizes. The pictures are tonal, dark-toned lithographs of landscapes, animals and rural cottage scenes, with dense shadow and loose drawn texture that a designer could study for atmospheric mood, heavy blacks and expressive mark-making.
