Excerpt from The Studio and What to Do in It, Vol. 1
For instance, I quite agree with the late Mr. Norman Macbeth, whose advice on art was always sound, that as the portrait is derived directly from living subjects, so should the backgrounds and surroundings be composed of real objects; but I know that in the practical business of a portrait photographer, it would be next to impossible to compass this desirable result, and therefore I have admitted the use of painted screens. The chapters on Posing and the Management of the Sitter embody the result of twenty-five years of daily work in the studio, and I trust will be of use to the professional photographer; and the concluding chapters will, I hope, aid him in other departments of his profession.
Although the great bulk of the book is new, I must acknowledge that some of the chapters have already appeared in the pages of the Photographic News, a journal which, without neglecting the strictly scientific detail upon which mechanical photography depends, has always urged upon photographers the study of art as of even more vital importance to success in their profession than science, which, after all, is only a similar means to a picture-making end as colour-making is to painters.
