Every subscriber to THE ALDINE for the
year 1874 will receive q pair of chromos.
The original pictures we've painted in oil for
the publishers of THE ALDINE, by Thomas
Moran, whose great Colorado picture was
purchased by Congress for ten thousand dol
lars. The subjects were chosen to represent
1.-The East" and 1.-The West" One is a
view in The White Mountains, New IIamp-
shire; the other gives The Cliffs of Green
River, Wyoming Territory. The difference
in the nature of the scenes themselves is a
pleasing contrast, aud affords good display
of the artists scope and colOring. The
chromOs are worked from thirty distinct
plates, and are in size az lG) and appear
ance exact fac-similes of the originals. The
presentation of a worthy example of Ameri-
cas- greatest landscape painter to the SUBJ
scribers of THE ALDINE was hold but
peculiarly Happy idea, and its successful
realization is attested by the following testi-
mOnal, over the signature of Mr.. Moran
himself.
NEWARK, n. j., Sept. 20th, 1873.
Messrs. JAMES SUTTON & Co.
Gentlemen, Il am delighted with the proofs
in color of your chromos. They are wonder
fully successful representations by mechani-
cal process of the original paintings.
Very respectfully,
(Signed,) THOS. MORAN.
These chrOmos are in every sense Ameri-
can. They are by an original American
process, with material of American manu-
facture, from designs of American scenery
by an American painter, and presented to
subscribers to the first successful American
Art Journal. If no better because of all
this, they will certainly possess an interest
no foreign production can inspire, and
neither are they any the worse if by reason
of peculiar facilities of production they cost
the publishers only a triiie, while equal in
erery respect to other chromos that are sold singv
for double the subscription price of THE
ALDINE. Persons of taste will prize these
pictures for themselves-not for the price
they lid or did not cost, and will appreciate
the enterprise that renders their distribution
possible.
If any subscriber should indicate prefer
ence for figure subject, the publishers will
send Thoughts of Home" new and

Art DEPARTMENT.. 1922.

The illustrations of THE ALDINE have
won worldwide reputation, and in the art
centres of Europe it 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 rapid
ly yielding to a more educated and discrimin-
ating taste which recognizes the advantages
OF superior artistic quality with greater facili-
ty of production. The wood-cuts of THE
-dLDINE possess all the delicacy and elabor-
ate finish of the most costly steel plate,
while they afford better rendering of the
artists original.
To fully realize the wonderful work which
THE ALDINE is doing for the cause of art
culture in America, it is only necessary to
consider the cost to the people of any other
descent representations of the productions of
great painters.
In addition to designs by the members of
the National Academy, and other noted
American artists, THE ALDINE will re-
produce examples of the best foreign
masters, selected with view to the highest
artistic success and greatest general interest
Thus the subscriber to THE ALDINE will,
at tritlng cost, enjoy in his own home the
pleasures and refining influences of true art.
The quarterly tinted plates for 1874 will
be by Thos. Moran and J. D. Woodward.
