"This fully illustrated history traces the development of graphic art as a narrative medium from ancient Egyptian tomb painting to the contemporary poster. Many forms and techniques have been examined, including Greek vase painting, medieval manuscript illustration and woodcuts; and after the invention of printing- copper plate engraving, wood engraving, etching and lithography. The evolution of these methods is surveyed chronologically and specific periods are described in detail in relevant chapters."--dust-jacket.
