ART BEPABTME.Yr, 1874. The illustrations of THE ALPINE have won a world-wide reputation, and in the art centers of Europe L is an admitted fact that its wood cuib are examples of the highest perfection ever attained. The Common prsjudiec in favor of “steel plates.'’ is rapidly yielding to a more educated and d -c itnluating taste which recognizes the advantages of superior artistic quality with greater facility of production. The wood cuts of THE ALDINE possess all the delicacy and elaborate finish of the most costly steel plate, while they affords better rendering of the artist’s original. To fully realize the wonderful work winch THE A LDIXE fa doing for the effttse of art —- culture iu America, it manly necessary to — consider the cost to the people of any other decent representations of the productions of gieat painters. In sdditon to designs by members of the _ National Academy, and other noted American artists, THE ALDINE will reproduce examples of the best foreign misters, selected with a view to the highest artistic success and greatest genera) interest. Thus the aubscriber to THE ALDINE will, at a trifling cost, enjoy in his own hqme-the pleasu es and refining influences of true art. The quarterly tinted pistes for 1874 will be by Tbos. Moran sod J. D. WoodwardThe Christinas issue for 1874 will contain special designs- appropriate to the season, by • ■. our best artists,ana will surpass in attractions any ofitspredecessors.' PREHIIiiIS FOR 1874. Every subscriber to THE ALDINE for the year 1874 will receive’ a pair of chromes.— The original pictures were painted in oil for the publishers of TIIE ALDINE. by Tiros. Moran, whose great Colorado picture was purchased by Congress for ten thousand dollars. The subjects wete chosen to .represent “Tho Kath’’ and ’The West.” One is a view in The White Mountains,Ned Hampshire; the other gives '1 he Cliffs of Green River, Wyoming Territory. The difference in the nature of the scenes themselves is a pleasing contrast, and affords a good display of the artist’* scope and coloring The chrotuos are each worked from thirty distinct plates, and are in size (12 x 16) and appearance exact tac similes of the originals. The presentation of « worthy example of America’* greatest landscape painter to the subscribes of THE ALOIEE was s bold but peculiarly happy id**, ond its successful realization is attested by the follow* ing testimonial, over the signature of Mr. Moran himself. * * Nt sm, N J., Sept. 20/A, 1873.
