The work details the development of wood engraving as an art form and trade, emphasizing the historical context and practical techniques involved. It aims to bridge the gap in existing literature regarding both the theoretical aspects and the hands-on practices of wood engraving. The opening of the treatise sets the stage by addressing the public's general unfamiliarity with wood engraving techniques. It clarifies the distinction between wood engraving and copper engraving, explaining the methodologies involved in creating impressions from each type of engraving. The author articulates his intentions to provide a comprehensive account of the art form, rooted in both practical experience and historical context, laying the groundwork for a structure that will explore the legacy and evolution of wood engraving.
