A rediscovered classic that puts the glitter back into British printmaking Etching in England by Sir Frederick Wedmore returns, restored and reborn for a new generation. Step into the smoky studios and sunlit streets of 19th-century Britain as Wedmore, one of the era s most perceptive critics, guides readers through the art of etching with vivid commentary and warm authority. This book unfolds the story of English etching history: its technical revolutions, its passionate practitioners, and the cultural forces that made etching a defining medium of its age. Practical etching techniques sit alongside rich historical etchings and biographical sketches, giving both novices and connoisseurs a lucid etching guide wrapped in literary charm. Historically significant and brilliantly written, Wedmore s analysis remains a cornerstone of English art history and a must-read for anyone interested in British printmaking. His observations illuminate why certain 19th-century etchings still captivate collectors and scholars alike, making this edition essential for etching collectors, students, and casual readers who love artful storytelling. This volume was out of print for decades and is now republished by Alpha Editions carefully restored for today s and future generations. More than a reprint, this edition is a collector s item and a cultural treasure: annotated, faithfully reproduced, and presented to reconnect modern audiences with the enduring craft and critique of etching in England. Keywords: Etching techniques, Sir Frederick Wedmore, historical etchings, etching art analysis.
