Old book illustrations wordshop

Welcome to Old book illustrations wordshop, the blog we have intended to complement our main site, Old book illustrations.
While we all like pictures and a lot of people will be fully satisfied to just look at them, download them and use them any way they want, it occured to us that some visitors might feel somewhat frustrated not to know anything about them or the books from which they were taken. So we decided to grant our illustrations some extra room to put them into context and quote one or two of the paragraphs which relate to them. In the case of the Trousset encyclopedia, we chose to reproduce the full article every time, with the secret hope that in the long run, entry after entry, it would build up to something our most benevolent visitors would think worth refering to.
This blog is also the place where we’ll add a general description of each book and a short note about its author and illustrator(s), that is if we know anything about them…
Please feel free to comment and to send us feedback and suggestions.
