MASTERS OF PAINTING
With many illustrations in photogravure.
A series which gives in each volume a large number of examples
reproduced in photogravure of the works of its subject. The first
series of books on art issued at a popular price to use this
beautiful method of reproduction.
The letterpress is the same as the volumes in the Popular Library
of Art, but it is reset, the size of the volumes being 8¾ ins. by
5¾ ins. There are no less than 32 plates in each book. Bound in
cloth with gold on side, gold lettering on back: picture wrapper,
5s. net a volume, postage 5d.
This is the first time that a number of photogravure
illustrations have been given in a series published at a popular
price. The process having been very costly has been reserved for
expensive volumes or restricted to perhaps a frontispiece in the
case of books issued at a moderate price. A new departure in the
art of printing has recently been made with the machining of
photogravures; the wonderfully clear detail and beautifully soft
effect of the photogravure reproductions being obtained as
effectively as by the old method. It is this great advance in the
printing of illustrations which makes it possible to produce this
series.
The volumes are designed to give as much value as possible, and
for the time being are the last word in popular book production.
