The Oxford Thackeray. With illustrations. [Edited with introductions by George Saintsbury

SAINTSBURY, George Edward Bateman., Thackeray, William Makepeace · 64 pictures

A collected edition of William Makepeace Thackeray's writings, edited with introductions by George Saintsbury and published in London by Oxford University Press in the early 1900s for general and student readers. The plates reproduce Thackeray's own pen-and-etched comic scenes — skaters on a frozen canal, a dancing party under framed pictures, a crowded banquet table, a gossip on a garden bench — offering caricatured Victorian figures, deep-set interiors with patterned walls, and loose hatched crowd groupings.
