TO THE MEMORY

OF

ADAM SALOMON

SCULPTOR AND PHOTOGRAPHER,

Chevalier de l’ordre de la légion d’honneur,

This work is Dedicated

BY THE AUTHOR

AS A TRIBUTE OF ADMIRATION AND RESPECT

FOR THE FIRST ARTIST OF ACKNOWLEDGED ABILITY WHO WAS ORIGINAL ENOUGH

TO PRACTISE PHOTOGRAPHY FOR ITS OWN SAKE,

AND WHO WAS BRAVE ENOUGH

TO APPEAR BEFORE A PREJUDICED ART WORLD AS A PHOTOGRAPHER

AS WELL AS A SCULPTOR.

Bonne renommée vaut mieux que ceinture dorée.
