notes: label: Description
content: "Alexander Anderson (1775-1870), an American artist and physician, learned the art of engraving by copying the work of Thomas Bewick (English, 1753-1828). In 1804 he engraved some 300 illustrations for the first American edition of Bewick's "Quadrupeds." Anderson trained the generation of wood engravers who made Bewick's style dominant in early nineteenth century America.
