PICTURING A Sc, .tGHT.
How Instantaneous Photography Figures in the Modern Paiuter,s Art.

How Instantaneous Photography Figures
 in the Modern Painters Art.
 Instantaneous photography has made it easy to-day for men with little knowl- edge of seamanship to place ships and boats under sail in a picture, but in early days, says Temple Bar, the power of doing so correctly was limited to a few men like Stanfeld and Capt. Beechy, R. N.
 The difficulty of obtaining anything like reliable description of a sea fight, even from those who had taken part in it, was, according to Stanfeld, very great, and he told us how, when plan ming his picture of ''The Battle of Ira falgar," he applied to Capt. Hardy for advice as to the position of the Victory, Hardy's answer being that, owing to the smoke, it was impossible during the height of the action to see beyond the ships alongside, adding: q am about the worst man you could come to-, for some time before that which your picture represents the Victory's tiller ropes had been shot away, and l was be- low in the steerage attending to them and the elm. and down there we knew so little of what was going on that we continued to load and fire one of her stern guns until ordered from the deck to stop because we were firing into one of our own ships.''
 Like Loutherbourg, Stanfeld had been at sea as young man, while both owed much of their facility and power of composing a subject to their early training in the scene loft. But think Loutherbourg greatly surpassed Stan field as draughtsman and in knowl edge of naval architecture.
