SynopsisThroughout the 19th & early 20th centuries, artists & writers often created colorful illustrated letters. Drawing on years of research, this unique book examines this lost art form-& reproduces striking letters by 60 notable correspondents, including 36 missives that have never before been published.
Big ole book. Much larger than I had thought it was going to be. I gave it as a gift and the recipient was sort of stunned by the size.
It is well laid out and captures those moments when people really drew in their own letters. Fascinating.
