William Griggs contributed to the invention of photo-chromo-lithography, and used this method, as well as collotype, heliogravure, and others to achieve the splendid results seen in his chromolithographs. His meticulous work led art historian Martin Hardie to declare that but for \"Griggs\' brilliant and painstaking work, chromolithography as a means of illustrating would be almost a lost art, like that of coloured aquatint.\" The colors, textures, and in many cases even the impression of the binding can be seen & felt in these fine images.
