Quiet War Scenes. Poems and translations. With eight illustrations ... by H. Whatley
A slim volume of poems and translations by James Baker of Clifton, Bristol, published in London by Simpkin, Marshall & Co. in 1879 with eight plates drawn by H. Whatley for Victorian literary readers. The plates are soft pencil and lithographic studies — seated country girls, a head-and-shoulders portrait, a wooded bank with a solitary figure — offering vignetted shading, oval framing and blank-paper edges for delicate page ornament.
