It was founded by Philip Gilbert Hamerton and promoted contemporary printmaking, especially etching and was important in the British etching revival. The New York Times praised the publication in 1875, saying it could not "eulogize too highly the merits of this periodical in all departments. It is, without question, the most beautiful in regard to illustration which emanates from the press."
