Victorian Illustration

VICTORIAN ILLUSTRATION

Patrick Leary on the VICTORIA list alerts readers to The Database of Mid-Victorian wood-engraved Illustration. It's a great piece of digital preservation - almost 900 images from c.1862 culled from popular journals, including Cornhill Magazine, Good Words, Illustrated London News, Leisure Hour, London Society, Once a Week, many by famous artists ... try it out for yourself.

  1. A wonderful site for someone who has never seen London but whose favourite authors write about London.
