The following editorial comment regarding this plate appears on p. 212:

EDITORIAL NOTES.

Our frontispiece and several of the other illustrations in this number are reproductions from the work of Mr. H. P. Robinson, whose name is known wherever the art of photography is understood. These pictures are some of this artist’s most recent successes, and were exhibited in the last Photographic Salon held in London. Each picture speaks for itself, so that it will be unnecessary for us to make any comment upon them. An account of the life and work of this distinguished artist will be found on another page.
