They are reproductions of works by American artists designed primarily for instruction in art, but none the less available for home-decoration on that account. Indeed they rank the higher in interest, being all they seem to common eyes, and faithful illustrations besides of recent advances in one of the least familiar departments of Art. They are not unfinished sketches, but exquisite finished color-work. The use we expect to introduce them to by this List is chiefly the non-professional, home-decoration. Let it be understood, there is nothing more fit for that use, and nothing higher, within the reach of people of limited means. They comprise landscapes, marine views, flowers, animals, birds and figure pieces from such artists as Turner, Moran, Bridges, Lambdin, Giacomelli, etc. We send Prang’s catalogue and supply whatever may be selected from it at the rate of $1.10 in new subscriptions for $1 of catalogue prices. Postage on sizes under 12x12 inches 6 cents; over 12x12 inches 10 cents.
