“AND WEE PEERIE WINKIE PAYED FOR A’.” (FROM THE PAINTING BY HUGH CAMERON.)
Example of a good chalk drawing too largely reduced.
No. XXI.
“An Arrest,” by Melton Prior.
This is a remarkable example of the reproduction of a pencil drawing. It is seldom that the soft grey effect of a pencil drawing can be obtained on a “half-tone” relief block, or the lights so successfully preserved.
This is only a portion of a picture by Mr. Melton Prior, the well-known special artist, for which I am indebted to the proprietors of Sketch.
The reproduction is by Carl Hentschel.
