Σελίδα 117 - ... not admit of delay, and we had nobody in the house to send for a supply of the deficient materials, I resolved to write the list with my ink prepared with wax, soap, and lampblack, on the stone which I had just polished, and from which I could copy it at leisure. Some time after this I was just going...
Σελίδα 9 - The plate was finished ; and, after taking a very few proofs, I published the print at five shillings, and it succeeded so much beyond my expectation, that I immediately employed Mr. Woollett upon another engraving, from another picture by Wilson ; and I am now thoroughly convinced, that had I continued in publishing subjects of their description, my fortune would have been increased tenfold.
Σελίδα 117 - I intended to cover with etching ground, in order to continue my exercises in writing backwards, when my mother entered the room and desired me to write her a bill for the washerwoman, who was waiting for the linen. I happened not to have even the smallest slip of paper at hand, as my little stock of paper had been entirely exhausted by taking proof impressions from the stones; nor was there even a drop of ink in the inkstand.

Σελίδα 117 - I was just going to wipe this writing from the stone, when the idea all at once struck me, to try what would be the effect of such a writing with my prepared ink, if I were to bite in the stone with aqua-fortis ; and whether, perhaps, it might not be possible to apply printing ink to it, in the same way as to wood engravings, and so take impressions from it.
Σελίδα 82 - The Game and Playe of the Chesse : Translated out of the Frenche, and emprynted by me William Caxton. Fynysshid the last day of Marche, the yer of our Lord God a thousand four hondred, Ixxiiij.
Σελίδα 13 - Scott's liquid dye blue silk stockings, with Devonshire clocks ; long-quartered shoes, with large square buckles, which covered the whole of his instep down to his toes ; a shirt with a frill and ruffles of lace ; his hair pomatumed and powdered, with an immense toupee, three curls on a side, and tied up with a tremendous club behind.
Σελίδα 11 - He never took off more proofs than were really bespoken, and every name was put upon the print as it came out of the press, unless it were faulty ; and then it was destroyed,* not laid aside for future sale, as has been too much the...
Σελίδα 7 - The arts were at the time he began, at a very low ebb in this country. Wotton's portraits of hounds and horses, grooms and squires, with a distant view of the dog-kennel and stable; and Hudson's portraits of gentlemen in great coats and jockey caps, were in high repute. Inferior prints from poor originals were almost the only works our English artists were thought capable of performing ; and, mortifying as it must be to acknowledge it, yet it must be admitted, that (with the exception of the inimitable...
Σελίδα 44 - ... and amazingly valuable. — In a print of the holy family, from VANDYKE, St. John was reprefented laying his hand upon the virgin's moulder.
