Sinopsis
Excerpt from J. Winfred Spenceley: His Etchings and Engravings in the Form of Book Plates
Truly is he blessed who has found some form in which to express his ideals; a work that uplifts and inspires, giving to its creator that sublime enthusiasm that brings him into closer sympathy with God and man.
It is not the enthusiasm of genius, whose concentrated force turned in one direction rises to supreme ecstasy; but the gentle radiance, more diffused but springing from the same source, that means happiness and wider understanding.

Excerpt from J. Winfred Spenceley: His Etchings and Engravings in the Form of Book Plates
Seldom absent from my husband's work table was a little brown card, bearing the motto,
"Blessed is the man who has found his work."
How often, as leaning over his shoulder to watch the progress of some plate, has my eye caught sight of the little card, and my heart murmured, "Amen!"
Truly is he blessed who has found some form in which to express his ideals; a work that uplifts and inspires, giving to its creator that sublime enthusiasm that brings him into closer sympathy with God and man.
It is not the enthusiasm of genius, whose concentrated force turned in one direction rises to supreme ecstasy; but the gentle radiance, more diffused but springing from the same source, that means happiness and wider understanding.
Much has been said of Mr. Spenceley as an artist, and many have hinted at the personality of the man as portrayed in his book-plates; but few can know so well as I, the beauty of his nature or the strength of his spirit, and I shall never cease to be grateful for the privilege of knowing him so intimately.
