Editorial comment for this plate:

A UTAH FOREST.

WE take pleasure in giving our readers this week the picture by R. G. Savage, son of C. R. Savage, the well known photographer and photographic merchant, of Salt Lake City, which we half promised them several weeks ago. It is a characteristic bit of a Utah forest, and as such is of more than passing interest. Mr. Savage has selected his point of view in such a manner as to group the trees in a particularly picturesque way. The great contrast, however, between the light and shade, unavoidable in such pictures, has made the high lights a trifle too intense. But on the whole we have a pictorial bit of landscape well rendered and well reproduced.

Ralph Graham Savage: 1860-1928
