Many creative ideas can come from engraved art from the past. The depth of textures with lines that are thick,  medium and thin make up a vast majority of the image portraying a realistic look. The perspective is also a great way to study the images and develope your own illustration of a scene from a  serene still life to a breathtaking landscape. 
The artists that drew and created this vintage art were obviously in a different time period and their thoughts were in a  different place. Get their take what their perception was like in that time particular period.
