Présentation de l'éditeur
It is, therefore, the Editor sintention to deal with this important branch of the subject only as regards the results which have so far been obtained, and to do so with a view to contemplating its artistic possibilities rather than its scientific aspects. Much has already been said and written about photography in relation to the A rts. Attempts have been made to draw comparisons between the work of the painter and that of the photographer ;and in dealing with colour-photography the tendency to join issue with the painter is naturally increased. But the Editor considers that it is to the best interests of photography that it should be regarded apart, and any artistic success that may be obtained is better judged on its own merits rather than by the standards set up by the painter or engraver. Endeavours to reproduce effects obtained by these artists are in themselves opposed to the spirit of true photography, and only display a lack of appreciation of the possibilities of the camera, and the opportunity it offers for the attainment of original effects. In this respect it is gratifying to find that many of the plates which have been submitted in connection with this volume bear distinct evidence of the independence of the photographer, and justify the belief that colour-photography will be developed on original and progressive lines.

Présentation de l'éditeur
This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
