Every subscriber to THE ALDINE for the
year 1874 will receive pair of chromos. The
original pictures were painted in oil for the pub

whose great Colorado picture was purchased by
Congress for ten thousand dollars. The subjects
were chosen to represent 1.-THE East" and "The
West" One is view in The White Mountains,
New Hampshire the other gives The Cliffs of
Green River, Wyoming Territory. The differ
ence in the nature of the scenes themselves is a
pleasing contrast, and affords a good display
of the artists scope and coloring. The chromos
are each worked from thirty distinct plates, and
are in size az x 1e) and appearance exact fac.
SMILES of the originals. The presentation Of a
worthy example of Americas greatest landscape
painter to the subscribers of THE ALDINE was
bold but peculiarly happy idea, and its success

ART DEPARTMENT, 1874.

The illustrations of THE ALDINE have won
a worldwide reputation, and in the art centres
of Europe 1t is an admitted fact that Its wood
cuts are examples of the highest perfection ever
attained The common prejudice in favor Of
''steel plates" is rapidly yielding TO more
educated and discriminating taste which recog.
nzes the advantages of superior artistic quality
with greater facility of production. The wood
cuts of THE ALDINE possess all the delieacy
and elaborate fnish of the most costly steel
plate, while they afford a better rendering of the
artists original
To fully realize the wonderful work which
THE ALDINE is doing for the cause of art cul-
turs in America, it is only necessary to consider
the cost to the people of any other decent re-
presentations of the productions of great pain
tiers.
In addition to designs by the members of the
National Academy, and other noted American
artists, THE ALDINE will reproduce examples
of the best foreign masters, selected with a view
to the highest artistic success and greatest gen.
eral Anterest. Thus the subscriber to THE
ALDINE till, ut trifiing cost, enjoy in his
own home the pleasures and refiaing influences
of true art.

THE ALDINE, while issued with all the

interest characteristic of ordinary periodicals.
1t is an elegant miscellany of pure. light and
graceful literature and a collection of pictures,
the rarest specimens of artistic skill in black and

most appreciated after it has been bound up at
