Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Picture-Making by Photography
Not always sufficiently distinguish between his own personality and that of the Roman Empire. I am afraid that the following chapters may be open to a similar objection. I fear that a great deal more will be found concerning my own personality and productions than a modest writer would willingly admit; but this cannot easily be avoided. The nature of the information to be conveyed, and the lessons to be inculcated, demand that I should teach the results of my own experience, and suggest that the pictures which have been the outcome of that experience would be the most suitable illustra tions. It will be evident that pictures which have been actually produced by photography will better show the peculiarities and limitations of the art than any other method of illustration.
