ROBERT ANNING BELL
Robert Anning Bell, Director of the Art School of the Liverpool University, is the most prolific designer of artistic picture-plates in Great Britain. His work has long been the envy of amateurs, and no collection can claim to be representative without some examples of his work. His book-plates have been reproduced and commented on in almost all published articles on the general subject. The book-plate number of the “Studio,” Simpson’s “Book of Book-plates,” Bowdoin’s “Rise of the Book-plate,” Zur Westen’s “Ex Libris” (Leipzig, 1901), all show examples. His work is characterized by dignity and grace, is in good drawing, and has an average of excellence unsurpassed. The list is complete to July 1, 1902.

D. Y. CAMERON
D. Y. Cameron is one of the most prominent artists in the so-called “Glasgow School of Designers.” His plates are nearly all etchings and are decidedly his own in subjects and treatment. They are most excellent productions. His work has been most fully exploited in Simpson’s “Book of Book-plates,” Vol. I., No. 4. There are eleven designs listed in Fincham, and the “Studio” Book-plate number reproduces four.
