ARLIS/NA
“Set in Stone: Lithography in Paris, 1815-1900 provides a comprehensive examination of multiple aspects of lithography’s development and impact, both artistically and commercially speaking, in its epicenter. . . . A welcome addition to the literature on lithography, generally speaking, and a particularly good resource for gaining an understanding of the medium’s localized context.”
