Collection: George Daniels F
George F. Daniels (active mid- to late-19th century) was an American artist and engraver known for his wood engravings and illustrations published in popular periodicals of the era, including Harper’s Weekly and Ballou’s Pictorial. Working during a time when illustrated journalism flourished, Daniels contributed to visual reporting that brought scenes of American cities, industry, and everyday life to a wide audience.
Little is recorded about his personal life, but his engravings display the precision and craftsmanship typical of the best illustrators of the period. His work reflects the transition from hand-engraved imagery to the more modern printing methods that would define late-19th-century publishing.
