April 24, 1891.] THE PHOTOGRAPHIC NEWS. 317 one farthing per hour. The marble blocks last from twenty-five to thirty hours, but, as already indicated, the artificial fire-clay will last a great deal longer. We hope soon to have the opportunity of trying this new form of arc lamp in the optical lantern. We under stand that the heat from it is considerably less than that from the limelight—a fact which may, perhaps, be ac counted for from the peculiar construction of the appara tus, which would cause a great deal of the heat to be ab sorbed. The lamp, we need hardly say, is also particu larly suitable for lighthouse use, for mast-head lights for ships, for search lights, for naval and military purposes, and it may prove to be, from its great steadiness, one of the best forms of lamp that can be employed in the photo graphic studio. But the purpose of the present article is to show how well it is adapted for the work of projection, and, of course, under this head will also come its employ ment in photographic enlarging apparatus. CRYSTAL PALACE EXHIBITION. Second Notice. As promised by the executive, the pictures were all in their places by last Friday ; but, as the catalogue bore up to that day no corresponding numbers, it was rather diffi cult for the visitor to find the title of any particular picture except by a lucky guess. The system employed of distinguishing each alcove by a letter and number does not seem to be a very happy one, and is certainly an aggravation to those in search of any particular exhibit. For example, on page 26 of the catalogue we find the heading, “ Alcove 4R," the next heading being, “ Outside of Alcoves 5L and 5R (1),” followed by “Alcove 5L (Class A B).” Now no one—except, perhaps, that master of confusion, Bradshaw—can make out at a glance what all these reference figures aud numbers signify. Surely, if the screens and alcoves were numbered like a street, with even figures on one side and odd numbers on the other, the method would be more easily understood by the non-mathematical mind. The Art Division commences with Alcove A, and, so far as its contents are concerned, it might be called Al, for it holds the pictures sent in by Mr. Van der Weyde. Perhaps the most striking of these is the life-size and full-length picture of Miss Minnie Terry, and the very charming portrait of the Princess of Wales. Adjoining Alcove A we enter that marked IL, and, although here we have a different type of photographic work, it is decidedly good of its kind. It consists of a number of views by Poulton, some of the best being those of fisher-folk taken at Whitby. Messrs. Byrne and Co., of Richmond, still keep up the high standard of work which they have taught us to expect from their studio, and show a number of life-size heads (taken direct), as well as an excellent selection from their “ At Home ” series. The next exhibit gives us a sample of process work in the shape of a number of beautiful photogravures by Boussod, Valadon, and Co. This firm also shows a number of copies of water-colour paintings reproduced in colour, and so well done that it is difficult to say where they differ from the original works. (This reminds us that in the apparatus section of the Exhibition there are shown certain photographs by “The Art Colour Photographic Company.” We were assured by the attendant in charge that they were the direct product of the camera, and were not coloured by hand. We make no comment on this statement, but merely repeat it for the benefit of those who looked for an immediate result from M. Lippmann’s experiments.) The exhibit of Mr. E. T. F. Goodwin, of Upper Norwood, is of very high quality all through, platinotype portraits outnumbering those in silver, and we must give similar praise to the pictures shown by Mr. Pym, of Streatham. Mr. W. Crookes’ (Edinburgh) collection calls for special mention, because it contains one of the most successful and realistic pictures which we have ever seen, and visitors to the Palace should be careful not to overlook it. Its title, “ The Misses Curie,” conveys little idea of its singular character, nor is it stated in the catalogue that it was taken by daylight combined with flash-light. The two ladies are talking in front of a fire-place, the light from which strikes their faces in a very natural manner. Messrs. Cameron and Smith show many excellent copies of pictures by G. F. Watts, including “ Love and Life,” “ Orpheus and Eurydice,” &c., besides a number of good portraits. Next we have a peep into the past, by examin ing a loan collection of photographs taken by the late Mrs. Julia Margaret Cameron, who may be said to have been the first to recognise the necessity of observing the rules of art in photographic portraiture. These pictures having recently been exhibited in London, call for no special comment here. The Birmingham Photographic Society contribute to the Exhibition a collection of pictures of which the Midland city may truly be proud, for some of the gems of the show are among them. The work of Mr. W. J. Harrison is, of course, good, for he is one of our veteran workers. We must also give a word of praise to the pictures sent by Mr. A. W. Wills, who seems to be as much at home among the natives of Burma as he is when taking pictures in his orchid houses at home. Mr. J. II. Pickard has managed to get a marvellous picture from a simple bunch of grapes. Look at this, some of ye academi cians, who paint year after year the same fruit studies with slight variation, and take a lesson, if not in colour, in delicate light and shade ! But Mr. Karleese, with his beautiful scenes on the river Cole, and his frame of Warwickshire scenery, must take the palm from all who exhibit in this alcove, although he is run hard in subjects of the same kind by Mr. Leeson.
