The portfolio : an artistic periodical
The Portfolio was an English artistic periodical published in London by Seeley, Jackson and Halliday, with 1870 given as its date, and it reproduced etchings by named artists for an audience of art readers and collectors. Its plates are fine-line etchings of landscapes, figures and architecture, with the shipping and rigging in the first picture rendered in dense, delicate hatching a designer could study for pen-and-ink line.
