English Pen Artists of To-day


Examples of their Work,
with some Criticisms and Appreciations.

By CHARLES G. HARPER.

The English edition of this book is limited to 500 copies, and will not, under any circumstances, be reprinted in any form. Twenty-five numbered and signed copies only are issued in a special form, the illustrations hand printed upon Japanese paper and mounted. The binding of these copies is in half morocco, and the price of the remaining copies at this date is Ten Guineas net.

'Exceedingly well done, and Mr. Harper deserves the success which we believe is assured for his work.'—Pall Mall Gazette.

'A splendid and tasteful tribute of recognition has been paid by Mr. Harper to the 'Pen Artists of To-day' in the shape of a stately volume, containing many admirably executed examples of their work, accompanied by apposite criticisms and nice appreciations.'—Daily Telegraph.

'A very acceptable and useful work in editing the accomplishments of the most conspicuous pen-and-ink artists in England. This task, which we imagine must have proved at once a laborious and a pleasant one, Mr. Harper has accomplished in a very first-rate manner, and the result lies before us in a very excellently-produced quarto. The volume is a creditable production, even for the present day, the paper, type, and printing being admirable, whilst the author has clothed the whole in a nicely designed and useful binding.'—British Architect.
