Book is SIGNED BY PAUL GROESSE in fountain-ink on first free endpaper. Groesse (1906-1987), born in Hungary, was an art director (and production designer) for films, principally at MGM in his earlier years, and then free-lancing. He won three Academy awards for Best Art Direction ("Pride and Prejudice" (1940), "The Yearling" (1946), and "Little Women" (1949), and was nominated for eight films, including "Madame Curie" (1943), "The Music Man" (1962), and "Twilight of Honor" (1963)). Book is illustrated by the author, and also includes many other artist etchings. This book looks to be one of the most thorough ones on the subject, written and often illustrated by Ernest Stephen Lumsden, an etcher and painter, and Associate of the Royal Scottish Academy, and includes technical information on the processes. Art. Etching. Intaglio printmaking. DB[3]. Ernest Stephen Lumsden, et al. (illustratore).
