Painters, sculptors, architects, engravers, and their works : a handbook

Waters, Clara Erskine Clement, 1834-1916 · 1875 · New York : Hurd and Houghton · 85 pictures

A one-volume handbook of painters, sculptors, architects and engravers by American art writer Clara Erskine Clement, published in New York by Hurd and Houghton in 1875 for general readers and students of art history. The wood engravings copy well-known paintings, reliefs and sculpture groups—robed crowds, winged angels lifting nude figures, Christ carrying the cross in a framed panel—giving designers line-drawn figure groups and drapery studies with clear outlines and light hatching.
