“The Illustrated London News” adlı Britanya dergisi, Nathaniel Cooke, Herbert Ingram ve Mark Lemon tarafından yayınlanır. İlk sayısı 14 Mayıs 1842 tarihinde çıkan ve dünyanın her tarafından ilk kez haber ve röportajlar aktaran dergi geniş bir okur kitlesine seslenerek o andan itibaren büyük başarı görür. Büyük boy bir baskı olarak çıkan bu derginin getirdiği yenilik, içinde yer alan yazılara ek olarak son derece bakımlı (tahta baskı) gravürlerde yansıtılmış görsel konular içermesiydi. Devrin tanınmış yazar, gazeteci, çizer ve gravürcüleri, daha sonra ise fotoğrafçılar da dergiye katkıda bulunur. 1971 yılına dek haftalık dergi olarak yayınlanan “The Illustrated London News” bu tarihten sonra 1989 yılına dek aylık olur, daha sonra ise üç aylık aralarla çıkmaya devam eder. Nihayet 2003'te geniş okur kitlesine seslenen bir dergi olarak yayınına son verilip sözkonusu kuruluş sadece müşterileri için dergi yayınlamaya devam eder.

Resimli bir dergi olarak “The Illustrated London News” hemen bir rekabet ortamı yaratmış olduğundan dolayı, 19. yüzyıl ortalarından itibaren Britanya ve öteki Avrupa ülkelerinde birçok benzer resimli haber dergileri yayınlanır. Örneğin “The Graphic” adlı haftalık resimli dergi, kaliteli kâğıtta basılmış olarak ve üstün nitelikte tahta baskı gravürler içererek 1869'dan 1932 yılına dek süren bir yayın olur. Burada sözkonusu olan baskı, A. Nikolas (not: vurgu "Ni" hecesinde) adlı Kıbrıslı eski kitap harita ve gravür tüccarının koleksiyonunun bir kısmını içermektedir. Sergilenen eserler arasında, çoğu “The Illustrated London News” ile “The Graphic” dergilerinden alınmış gravürlerle bunlara eşlik eden (ingilizce ve yunanca çevirisi eşliğinde) makaleler olup, konuları 1842 yılından 1885 yılına dek vuku bulmuş siyasal olaylar, savaşlar, toplumsal v.s. olaylardır.

Yunanistan devletine ve yunan ortamına ilişkin konular arasında, kral Otto devri, İyon denizi adalarında İngiliz hakimiyeti ve sözkonusu adaların Yunanistan devleti rejimine geçişi, Tesalya ve Epir ayaklanması, kral I. Georgios'un Yunanistan'a gelişi, Santorini yanardağının patlaması, Girit isyanı ve Arkadi manastırı katliamı, Atina'yı Pire'ye bağlayan ilk demiryolunun yapılışı, Yunanistan meselesiyle ilgili Paris, Berlin ve Ayastefanos'taki uluslararası antlaşmalar, Hios (Sakız) adası depremi, Selânik'teki yabancı konsoloslara karşı işlenen cinayet v.b.

Sözkonusu gravürlerin birçoğu Avrupa ve Amerika'da çıkmış başka kitap ve dergilerde [örneğin Londra'da yunanca dilinde yayınlanan "Vretanikos Astir" (Britanya Yıldızı) (1860-1862) ve Leipzig'de yayınlanan "Esperos" (Akşam/Batı Yıldızı) (1881-1888)] yeniden basılır.
