Just wanted to say I am a huge Virgil Finlay fan and totally agree that his ‘craftsmanship’ is something that we could all take a lesson from. And that craft was rendered without a photoshop tool in sight.

Hi Ana,

The plates (in black and white) used to illustrate this post came from the following book: Nicholson, Benedict. Joseph Wright of Derby: Painter of Light, Vol. I and II. Hew Haven: Yale University Press, 1968. Plates 45: A Girl Reading a Letter by Candlelight, with a Young Man Looking Over Her Shoulder, 1762.
