The Fire Etcher's Work: Beautiful Bits of Art That Are Burned in Wood

Adapted from the February 14, 1892 New York Times article The Fire Etcher's Work: Beautiful Bits of Art That Are Burned in Wood.

The New York Times 1892 article The Fire Etcher's Work: Beautiful Bits of Art That Are Burned in Wood displayed above was the first one found that verified that J. William Fosdick's first commission was for the New York, Madison Avenue house of Edward Dean Adams in 1884.

The New York Times article was not illustrated. Because the panel of "A Fury" was the one used to describe Fosdick's technique, that image was borrowed from the 1892 Franklin Smith article Etching With Fire that is likewise exhibited here in the E-Museum.
