For centuries, prints were the only means of conveying information pictorially to the public. They were the means of illustrating books, reproducing paintings, satirising politicians and depicting sporting occasions. This book helps distinguish the various types of prints, tells about their history and development and shows something of their range and variety. About the author As a historian, Ronald Russell is greatly concerned with what prints can tell us about the past. He is also appreciative of prints as works of art.
