To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
J. O. Davidson, who is engaged upon the naval battle scenes, is well known to the American public as a marine artist. His historical naval battles, several of which have been illus- trated by Harpers, are, for faithful study and historical accu- racy, conceded, even abroad, to be standard works of their kind. The principal illustrations of the naval engagements pub- lished in the " Century " war papers during the past two years are by Mr. Davidson, and his marines in the New York exhibi- tions ...have always been much admired, but to this work he has given his best efforts, and his drawing shows skilful and careful work. No expense having been spared in the preparation of the original paintings, Mr. Prang has certainly retained all of their artistic merits in the new and beautiful reproductions which are called "Aquarelle Prints," and are the first illustrations in colors ever issued of the Civil War. With all the exact drawing of the originals, these reproductions, so marvellously well exe- cuted, are deserving of a place in any collection.
