to Deuefe tnas paintings are not really superior
to Autographs, but are only valued more highly
on account of their relative scarcity. ManT
even among those who feel the weakness and
insufhciency Of the machine-made pictures are
yet at a loss to account for these unsatisfactory
quailties. There are also few persons who,
II qnestoned concerning their ideas on this
subject, would be found to he entertaining the
belief that it Is only a question of time when
pictures will be turned out by this method that
viii equal painting. If not surpass it To
oescrloe such expectations as visionary is put
ting IL very mildly indeed Aside from the fact
Lnat no mechanical process can ever equal IN
dellcacy the work Of the human hand, there are
in painting hundred ways of producing an
effect to one thatis available in lithography
or any other method Of reproduction. In
printing colors, from blocks of stone or other
material, 1t IS possible to use very delicate and
agreeaDly tinted inks, but there must ever be
an almost infinite distance between
their shades as regards tone and
graduation can only be secured
by printing the colors delicately one above the
other; this Is the method actually employed |
and oil late years it has been brought 20 a de- |
