To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
" Aquatint is freely used in the "Don Quixote" illustrations, notice- ably in the other example shown here, " Sancho and the Teeth, " where it covers the sky, and shows up the high lights on the shirt, ETCHINGS AND ENGRAVINGS OF WILLIAM STRANG and the white horse. It is also effectively used in the Kipling series, and can here be seen in " Toomai of the Elephants " and " A Matter of Fact. " Mr. Strang went to Spain to study the local colour for " Don Quixote, " and no doubt observed there, or a...t home, the dramatic effect produced by Goya in his etchings by the use of flat, bitten tones. The tint is more delicate and richer than that produced by sandgrain. In the aquatint process the acid bites the plate through a fine coat of resin : in the latter the plate is protected by a wax ground, through which sandpaper has made innumerable breaches. " Evening " is to a great extent done in this way, the heads being stopped out, but the plate was afterwards " rocked, " or roughened with a " rocker, " like an ordinary mezzotint plate, and scraped in the usual manner.
