$a The biography of Landseer in eight chapters is followed by a 'Catalogue of the Exhibited Works of Sir Edwin Landseer' (p. 147-171) (beginning with those exhibited at the Royal Academy) and a 'Catalogue of his Engraved Works' (p.173-184). Twenty plates are 'Permanent Photographs', showing portraits by Landseer of people and animals; four are woodcuts showing paintings of animals. Woodbury's 'permanent photographs' are not exactly photographs but result from a mould process and have no light-sensitive material in their final form |
