| THIS COLLECTION of brief essays on the British tradition of history painting includes "Print Makers and Print Sellers in England, 1770–1830" by David Alexander, particularly useful for the technical information it provides about the production of prints during this period. An essay on the Boydell Shakespeare Gallery traces the effects of that project on the tradition of history painting. Many full-color plates. (Rachel Mines.) |
