Description

Excerpt from Catalogue of Prints and Books, Illustrating the History of Engraving in Japan: Exhibited in 1888 It is well known that block printing was in use amongst the Chinese many centuries before its adoption in Europe, and as the same mechanical processes suffice for pictorial engraving, it might be inferred, and correctly, that in this respect also we have been in the rear of the Middle Kingdom. Not only was it so, but other Turanian nations, such as the Koreans and Japanese, have been able to take advantage of the labours of their neigh bours to anticipate us in the possession of an agency that in our hands has led the way to mighty strides of education.
