The work explores the development and significance of etching as an artistic medium in England, distinguishing between commercial and artistic etching practices. The author highlights notable etchers, both British and foreign, who have contributed to the field, making a case for the artistic merit of their works. The opening of this volume sets the stage for a detailed exploration of etching, beginning with a preface that reflects on the evolution of the medium over nearly three decades. Wedmore discusses the reception of various etchers, such as Turner and Wilkie, and introduces the concept of two groups: those motivated by commercial success and those driven by artistic expression. The author emphasizes that this exploration focuses on the finer works produced within England and aims to document the significant contributions to etching made by both domestic and international artists. He conveys a clear intention to elevate the understanding and appreciation of etching as a legitimate art form in its own right.
