Every one concerned with the publication of illustrated books, magazines, and papers, whether artist or engraver, printer or publisher, or even the outside public, should have been compelled to visit the exhibition of illustrated books just ended at the New York Public Library. In the art of illustration, people have gone backward, not forward. In the seventies and eighties, people had the right appreciation for it, they strove for perfection, and by the nineties they were in the van of the movement; their illustrated books and magazines held their own with those of any other country; they showed that to reject the methods of the past was not necessarily to substitute nothing good in their place.
