PORT.R4II' OF DICKENS,

DRAWN ON STONE BY R. J. LANE, A.R A.
F13.0M A PHOTOGRAPH BY JOHN AND CHARLKS WATRINS.
An exquisite likeness of Mr. Charles Dickens has
within the last few days made its right welcome
appearance. It is the result of the combined skill
of the above eminent artist and photographers. A
more literal transcript of the " human face divine"
we do not remember ever to have witnessed. The
firm and unerring, yet most delicate and refined touch
of Richard Lane's pencil has never within our recol-
lection been more happily applied than in this in-
stance. And the fact that it is so, yields evidence
enough of the felicitous application by Messrs.
John and Charles Watkins of their mar-
vellous art to the perpetuation of Mr. Dickens's
features, through the medium of the Magic Glass
sensitized by its scarcely perceptible film of col-
lodion. The engraving but just now issued
to the public (seasonably enough at this lime of
Year's Gifts and Christmas Offerings) is put
forth by the distinguished artists of whose united
labours—evidently
the h with each a labour of love—it is
happy fruit, as an exact pendant or companion
to the admirable portrait of Thackeray engraved by
Holl, from a drawing by Samuel Lawrence. Alto-
gether a more delightful memorial of Charles
Dickens could not hang upon our walls than this
counterfeit presentment of his living lineaments—
henceforth, we doubt not, to be treasured in many
an English home among its loved and honoured
LaPena.tes. It is a noble, manly head
—with and
Genius and Heart looking out upon us
res
from its kind, bright eyes.
