A Selection of Engravings。Publisher ‏ : ‎ Primrose HillPublication date ‏ : ‎ January 1, 2002Edition ‏ : ‎ First EditionLanguage ‏ : ‎ EnglishPrint length ‏ : ‎ 475 pagesISBN-10 ‏ : ‎ 1901648125HardcoverWood engraving world-wide in the twenty-first centuryThis 750-page book is the follow-up to two earlier directories of currently working wood engravers. Where they listed artists belonging to or known to the Society of Wood Engravers, this new, international survey shows the work of 250 artists from 23 countries. Nothing like it has been attempted since Clare Leighton's 1930 survey. It is the 'bible' of the late twentieth century return of the medium and while it does not and could not claim to be comprehensive, partly because it was assembled out of responses received from artists contacted, it will be a considerable time before anything replaces it as an insight into the diversity of current practice in this versatile and lovely medium. これは古い本です。Obituary - Simon Brett 1943-2024 - Marlborough News。全体的な状態は非常に良好です。。背表紙に少し埃が付着していますが、（添付の写真をご覧ください）
