Pictures at South Kensington : the Raphael cartoons, the Sheepshanks collection, &c.
Henry Blackburn's 1877 guide to the paintings at the South Kensington Museum, published in London by Chatto and Windus for gallery visitors and readers who wanted a pocket record of the Raphael cartoons and the Sheepshanks collection of British genre painting. The plates are small pen-and-ink reductions of oil paintings, built from dense parallel hatching, showing cottage interiors, courting couples, street boys and historical costume scenes usable as compact figure vignettes.
