Some illustrations are described as “One-half size” or similar. These descriptions relate to the size of the image in the original printed book and not to the size they are displayed in this e-text. For reference: a full page was 26cm in height; [Plate XIX] is an example of a full page image; efforts have been made to retain the sizes of images relative to each other.
