A church by Pugin, Dürer's house and floral ornament associated with F. E. Hulme are among the plates printed by James Akerman, the London lithographer whose credit marks the printing rather than the original design. The examples date from 1873–1876 and also include Florentine paintings and a Parisian apartment-building subject, ranging from plans and architectural views to ornamental studies. Captions often name several contributors, recording the collaboration that brought nineteenth-century drawings and designs into print.
