Excerpts from the inside flap: Henry Shaw was a perfectionist; many of the plates he either tinted himself or printed using colored wood blocks or wood engravings. This volume includes meticulous reproductions of his work. A compendium of medieval letter forms and also a valuable Victorian document giving insight into the sources of the Gothis Revival style.
