Lithography, History, Printmaking, creating with the arts
"Ever since the invention of lithography by Aloys Senefelder in 1798, artists have turned to the medium as their most popular method of printmaking. With the two notable exceptions of Constable and Turner, practically all the great artists have worked at some time in lithography. This volume contains the choicest examples of their work in this medium...By combining a cogent text with superbly reproduced illustrations, 'Artists' Lithographs' is a major analysis of an important area of artistic production and is certain to become the standard work on the subject."-- from dust-jacket -Includes index and bibliographic references.
