Synopsis
Excerpt from Some Masters of Lithography
Omissions of certain well-known lithographers will be noticed by those familiar with the sub jcet, and in particular the omission of the repro ductive men, such as aubry-lecomte and Mouil leron. The question of the respective positions of a man who does original work and one who reproduces the work of others is an old one, and I do not care to enter upon a discussion of it here, especially since there is nothing new to be said upon the subject. Suflice it for me to say that while I recognise the important part played by reproductive work in the past, partien larly before the invention of photography, I can not consider a man who merely interprets the work of others worthy to be placed among the great names of art, any more than I can consid er a translator in literature the equal of a great creative writer.
