DEcENBER 18, 1885.] THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWF. 809 is due to W. F. Donkin for his share in making the arrangemeuts. There were present on Wednesday an unusual number of visitors, and loud were the expressions of satisfaction. Amongst the water colours, may be specially noted the work of E. T. Compton, this artist excelling most notably in realising the beautiful cloud effects of Alpine scenery. V. Sellas’ new series of photographs, on plates about fifteen inches long, were much admired, one of the most striking being the view taken from the Pas de Chevies. It is needless to say that Mr. Donkin’s magnificent pic tures were thoroughly appreciated. Among other good shows may be mentioned the fine series by “ Jean Ville,” and also contributions by G. P. Baker, De Dechy, and Howard Barratt. “Jean Ville’s” view taken from the window of an hotel at Wiesen is exceptionally fine, owing to the wide play of gradation in the sky. The Burmese take a great interest in photography. It would be interesting to know whether a photograph just received by the Globe, from Mandalay, was executed by order of King Theebaw, or whether the photographer took it on his own account. In either case, the picture seems to be a most ghastly one, as it represents the crucifixion of a distant relative of the king’s, who, for a trilling offence, was tied to a rough bamboo gate, and left in the sun for twelve hours, with drops of water falling on his head from a bowl fastened above. After this, the un fortunate wretch was mutilated, till death ended his suffer ings. One would not like to have an album of such photo graphic horrors. The American workman has found a new use for photo graphy. According to the American Stationer, “travelling sign painters photograph their work, and send in their picture as a voucher on which to draw their pay.” Novel, but scarcely satisfactory, one would think. The New York satirical journal, .Puck, came down very heavily on the Neio York World iu a recent issue. The New York World published, on November 11th, what pur ported to be a portrait of Stead. It was not a bit like Stead, but no doubt it was near enough for the readers of the World. Unfortunately, however, two days after— that is, on the 13th—out came the World with another portrait, of Beckwith, a San Franciscan politician; and by an extraordinary coincidence, his portrait was identical with that of Stead—in fact, the same block seems to have been used. The opportunity was too good for Puck to lose, so tearing out the two portraits with the adjacent text, the Editor of Puck had the fragments photo graphed, and reproduced them under the heading of “ Illustrated Journalism.” Whether the using of the same block twice over for different men was an act of careless ness on the part of the World, or whether it thinks any 1 portrait will do so long as the original is a stranger, we are unable to say. What strange ideas some people have of photography ! We heard the other day of an amateur who, desiring toscrape an'acquaintance with the art, bought an old camera and lens at a pawnbroker’s. He showed his purchase to a photo grapher, whoat once pointed out that the camera let in light, and that the lens, a common French one, would never focus satisfactorily. “ That may be,” replied the tyro, iunocently, “ but I suppose they will do to practice with I” Imagine how a pupil would progress with a cracked camera and a de fective lens 1 Plates which have been exposed to light are all that are wanted to make his happiness complete. Apropos, the argument maiot lined by some that artists who wish to be true to nature should draw the horse in motion by the light thrown on his movements by instan taneous photography, is not altogether tenable. The artist seeks to convey a general impression of movement, not merely the attitude assumed for an instant, and impercep tible to the eye. It is possible with a very rapid plate to photograph a wheel revolving slowly, so that every spoke shall be distinctly shown; but were an artist to draw a wheel in this manner, no sense of motion would ba imparted. To the eye these photographs of horses walking, trotting, and galloping, appear very unreil and even ridiculous; ih a picture they would appear no less so. While, therefore, they are inteusly interesting, they will not much affect the pictures of artists. We except, of course, photographs of horses standing or poised on their hind legs in the act of rearing, when they not unfrequently remain stationary for an appreciable period. These should be of great practical value. 9 Patent Untelligence. Applications for Letters Patent. 15,162.
