Religious emblems and allegories : a series of engravings, with suitable letter-press, designed to illustrate divine truth
Religious emblems and allegories, engraved by William Holmes with accompanying explanatory texts, published by William Tegg in London in 1868 for Protestant readers seeking moral instruction from pictures. The 103 small wood engravings stage single lessons in dense parallel hatching: a man rowing toward shipwrecked swimmers, a crowd raising poles and hats, a caped figure walking beside a black cloud, a boy recoiling from a snake.
