Book excerpt: Julius John Lankes was born in Buffalo, New York in 1884, and became a prolific woodcut print artist, as well as an author and professor. As a child, he enjoyed working with the scraps of wood his father brought home from the lumber mill where he was employed. Lankes had a lifelong interest in art. He first worked in drafting after graduating from Buffalo Commercial and Electro-Mechanical Institute, but then attended art school. Lankes was a prolific artist. It is estimated he produced over 1,000 woodcut prints. He worked on many, varied projects, including from a historically important collection of Pennsylvania Dutch barns, graphics in The Liberator, and illustrations to accompany works by Beatrix Potter, Robert Frost and others. In addition to A Woodcut Manual, Lankes enjoyed a long teaching career that ultimately led him to being elected to the National Academy of Design. This new edition is dedicated to Charles Kreiner, an enthusiast for all things Buffalonian.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from J. J. Lankes: Painter-Graver on Wood A refreshing thing about these prints is their freedom from the atmosphere of the studios, with its endless suggestions of other men's art. He seems to see without the familiar results of steepage in art atmospheres, and his message is, therefore, not an echo but an original thing born of the contact between the external world and his own fresh mind.
