Research
This section presents original research on
British printed images to 1700. It is currently home to two important pieces of research.
The first is a set of studies of early modern English prints resulting from the longstanding
research of Dr Malcolm Jones of the University of Sheffield; these were originally presented
as bpi1700's 'Print of the Month' feature from August 2006 until June 2009. The second is an
important preparatory study of illustrations in British books published between 1604 and
1640, presenting searchable lists of all illustrated books from the period with information
about the types of images they contain.
It is hoped to add further research to this section in due course.
