Men in strange flying machines ... Mysterious veiled women ... Exotic animals, birds, insects, plants ... Eerie faces ... Wonderful technological devices ... Unusual landscapes, cityscapes, moonscapes ... Children, couples, Victorian buildings, and interiors ... Over 300 authentic and strikingly visual nineteenth-century engravings selected from rare periodicals, books, and catalogs, dating mostly from 1870 to 1900, and valuable for collagists, commercial and graphic artists, designers, illustrators, and others.
The illustrations were chosen by the well-known collagist Jim Harter, whose work has appeared in TheNew York Times, New York magazine, and other publications. Mr. Harter's artistry is evident in his selection of images that -- besides being useful as decorative or illustrative elements -- have a strong visual impact and symbolic potential. Line engravings offer unique textural qualities, and as Mr. Harter writes, they have a dream-like quality that other material cannot duplicate. Mr. Harter's introduction gives a brief history of collage as well as instructions on techniques and materials and an overview of his own perspective on the art. To illustrate the various ways these nineteenth-century cuts can be used, six collages composed entirely of images from this book are included.
