The Etching Of Cities (1913)

""The Etching of Cities"" is a book written by Thomas Wood Stevens and published in 1913. The book is a collection of essays that explore the art and architecture of cities, with a particular focus on the role of etching in capturing the essence of urban landscapes. Stevens uses his own experiences as an artist and critic to examine the ways in which etching can reveal the character of a city, from its grandest monuments to its smallest details. He also discusses the ways in which architecture and urban planning can shape the identity of a city, and the importance of preserving historic buildings and neighborhoods. Throughout the book, Stevens offers insights into the relationship between art and the urban environment, and the ways in which artists can contribute to the cultural life of their cities. ""The Etching of Cities"" is a fascinating exploration of the intersection of art, architecture, and urbanism, and a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and culture of cities.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
