Hello Charles, I think that you are on the right track on the time thing. Back when a lot of those engravings were done, we must remember that people were a lot more limited as far as entertainment......TV, cars, computers, internet and such were not around, life was a lot different....alot slower paced I guess you could say. I know a lot of those engravings must have taken considerable amounts of time! I know I am always in awe of a lot of the deep relief engravings.....to think that they were done with H&C or pushed is really something. Very talented engravers.
