The art of lithography / by D.G. Berri

Berri, D. G. (David Garden) · 1864 · London : Printed and published by the author, at the British and Foreign Heraldic Office · 3 pictures

A nineteenth-century London manual on lithography, self-published in 1864 by David Garden Berri, who ran a heraldic office. The pictures show heraldic achievements, including a coat of arms with a crest and motto, plus a printing-press scene drawn in the rotated, sideways orientation typical of scanned plates. Designers can take crisp coat-of-arms layouts, blue and ochre shield partitions, and the workshop engraving style.
