- A miracle of Remigius 2
- A Son of Pan
“A Son of Pan,” by William Padgett. Example of outline drawing, put in solidly with a brush. If this had been done with pencil or autographic chalk, much of the feeling and expression of the original would have been lost. The drawing has suffered slightly in reproduction, where (as in the shadows on the neck and hands) the lines were pale in the original. Size of drawing 11½ × 6½ in. Zinc process. - Ashes of Roses
This careful drawing, from the painting by Mr. Boughton, in the Royal Academy, reproduced by the Dawson process, is interesting for variety of treatment and indication of textures in pen and ink. It is like the picture, but it has also the individuality of the draughtsman, as in line engraving. Size of drawing about 6½ x 3½ in - Baptism of Clovis
- Bronze Cat
- Egyptian jewellery of the XIXTH dynasty
- Esquimaux carving
The first of these illustrations is perhaps the best, as it is certainly the most delicate and graceful of all the fragments yet discovered. It represents the profile of the head and shoulder of an ibex, carved in low relief upon a piece of the palm of a reindeer’s antler. So exact and well characterised is the sculpture, that naturalists have no hesitation in deciding the animal to be an ibex of the Alps, and not of the Pyrenees. - Gold pectoral inlaid with enamel
- Group of reindeer drawn upon a piece of slate

- Pectoral of Ramses II
- Prehistoric carving
In short, the prehistoric carvings are from the hands of men who were neither beginners nor blunderers in their art. The practised skill of a modern wood engraver would scarcely exceed in firmness and decision, nor in evident rapidity of execution, the outline of the animals in the example which is here engraved. - Statue of Rânofir
