Opinions of the Press.
“We have received ... a very beautiful reproduction of a picture by P. H. Emerson, which is a triumph both for photographer and process.... There is much poetical feeling in the grouping.... The general tone of the picture is a subdued red, and gives one the idea of summer twilight.”—The Camera.
“We have here a magnificent plate.”—Photographic News.
“From the Typographic Etching Company we have a reproduction of a landscape by P. H. Emerson ... by a process ... possessing decided individuality and capable of effect of light and atmosphere which the present example shows may be suggestive and pleasing. Here the figures of the labourers and the laden wain are realized with considerable fidelity to the conditions of light and air that constitute a vague glimmering environment. The charm of tranquillity that belongs to mild diffused light and spacious windless atmosphere can scarcely have suffered by translation in this instance.”—Saturday Review.
“Whether in composition or general treatment it is a picture of which the artist may justly feel[feel] proud.”—British Journal of Photography.
“We have received a large plate of a beautiful meadow scene also photographed by Mr. Emerson. It is indeed a June idyl of the marshes, with the women in picturesque attire piling upon a hay waggon the sweet-scented grasses for transport to the neighbouring stackyard.”—Scotsman.
“It is most certainly a splendid production, though its beauties do not dawn upon one at the first glance, yet after a little contemplation we must confess that it is one of the best examples of photogravure we have ever seen.”—Photographers' World.
