ART DEPARTMENT, 1874.
The Illustrations of The ALDINE
have won worldwide reputation, and
in the art centres of Europe il is an
admitted fact that its wood cuts are
examples Of the highest perfection ev-
er attained, The common prejudice
in favor of ''steel plates" is rapidly
yielding to a more educated and dis.
eliminating taste which recognizes the
advantages Of superior artistic quality
with create. facility of production;
The wood cuts Of The ALDiNE possess
all the delicacy and elaborate finish OF
the most costly steel plate, while the
they afford better rendering Of the
artists original.
The quarterly tinted, plate for 1874,
will be by Thomas Moran aud j. D..
Woodwa
The Christmas issue for 1874 will
contain special designs appropriate to
the season, by our best artis,s, and will
surpass in attractions any OF its prede-
cessors.
