The difference between these two modes of avail- ing of the art of wood-cutting would be not unlike WOOD-ENGRAVING. 8 1 the difference between pen-and-ink drawing and drawing in charcoal ; and you will find that from the time the change was made the wood-cut ob- tained a new source of power ; and from that the transition was gradual until the present period of varied and most interesting work was reached. There is to be noticed here one point of advantage in the progress of wood-engraving for t...he artist; and that is, that in drawing pictures for illustra- tion (that is those which are to be reproduced in wood-cut) he is not limited as to the method he employs. He may draw with the point or with the brush, or he may sketch in color, if he like ; by whichever medium in short, shall seem the best for the expression of his ideas, knowing that the skilful engraver will be able to imitate with amaz- ing cleverness his work. Sometimes the artist, especially if he be a very sure draughtsman, makes his drawing directly upon the block ; in which case he assures the purity of his own lines up to the point when the graver begins to cut.
