Book Description
Excerpt from The History of Xenophon, Vol. 2 Greeks and was in turn the source from which modern book illustration has developed. With the introduction of printing, wood cut blocks came into use but were rapidly supplanted by etchings, especially for finer work. This process dates from 1477 and held first place for centuries until superseded by steel engravings and finally by modern photographic processes.
