Excerpt from The Essentials of Illustration: A Practical Guide to the Reproduction of Drawing Photographs for the Use of Scientists Others
It may, of course, be argued that any picture which serves to illustrate the particular feature is good enough this is the contention of one who takes an insufficient pride in his work. A feature worthy of an illustration deserves the best the author can produce, more especially as a literary form is still, fortunately, preserved or, at any rate, aimed at.
The reason for indifferent illustrations is primarily due to bad or mediocre drawings, or to their unsuitability for the kind of reproduction in view.
