He immediately attracted attention by his unusual facility and his sympathetic interpretation of illustrations and pictures, and his publishers sent him abroad in 1883 to engrave a set of blocks after the old masters in the European galleries. These achieved for him a brilliant success. His reproductions of Italian, Dutch, Spanish, Flemish and English pictures were published in book form with appreciative notes by the engraver himself. Title page is loose. Minor bug tunneling inside front and back cover. Some darkening of page edges commiserate with age. Top of page edge is gilt. Pages clean and bright, tight binding.
