Excellent impressions well inked on thick paper they have a real charm and vitalilty.</p> <p>Coveny an illustrator and painter of literary subjects was the first to produce a series of etchings or engravings outside the natural history and topographical genres. This suite of plates shows a mastery of the form and is not only a good example of the art of etching but also a key work in the development of printing arts in colonial Australia. The book was printed by John Sands who coincidentally had worked in England on the illustration of Dickens's novels.</p> <p>A self-taught printmaker Twenty Scenes published when he was 36 years old would prove to be Coveny's chief work. The year that it was published he travelled to England hoping to establish himself there as a graphic artist but suffered a mental breakdown from which he never fully recovered.</p> </p> . Thomas H.
