Opinions Of The Press

"We feel grateful to Dr. Emerson and Mr. Goodall for a most fascinating volume. There is something singularly characteristic and attractive in the scenery of the Norfork Broads, as there is much that is peculiar and picturesque in the manners of the primitive population. . . . The series of illustrations seem to embrace and exhaust the whole range of local subjects. We are taken through wildernesses of wood and water, t rough sedgy solitudes, haunted by shy waterfowl, along winding river-reaches with wherries under sail. We are landed in quaint nooks of that watery world, where the tumble-down cottage of the fisherman or the fowler hangs over the rushy creek; we see the lonely farmhouse, with its sedge-thatched and straggling outbuildings, standing somewhat apart between marsh and cloudland; or the sequestered hamlet huddled round the little church, with the rude spire which is a landmark for leagues along the water-ways. We are shown the amphibious people following their multifarious occupations, with their farming, and their fishing, and their strange fashions of fishing. . . . The set of landscapes which c ose the volume are excellent as works of art, and they give an admirable idea of the somewhat melancholy charms of the scenery, when it does not happen to be lighted up by brilliant sunshine." - The Timet.

"Good wine needs no bush, and the Norfolk scenery needs no praise; but one may blamelessly sing in praise of good wine and the singing be but good, and write of or photograph Norfolk meritoriously. This Messrs. Emerson and Goodall have done, and done well, for which they deserve much thanks." - Saturday Review.

"The life depicted in this charming series of photographs is still redolent of the past. The wide e pause of flowery pasture-land, the smooth and pellucid waters, the picturesque craft, and the hardy good-humoured Broadsmen with their nets and meaks, are admirably represented, while the descriptive letterpress will recall many of his, own experiences to the reader familiar with East Anglian waters." - Morning Post.

"Dr. Emerson has in this work applied the art of photography in so triumphant a manner, that the fitful breezes are clearly caught on the water, and seen playing amongst the heads of the reeds. . . . We can vouch for their wonderful fidelity to Nature. Nothing like it has ever been published." - The Field

"' Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads ' is a book of unique artistic interest . . . The prevailing tone of the pictures is restful and subdued. There is much of quiet cloudy sky and long evening light. And the general impression left by the illustrations, even when representing the characteristic industries of the Norfolk work-a-day world, is singularly free from anything approaching to hurry and turmoil The claims of photography to rank among the true means of artistic production were never better exhibited than in this series of studies. . . . They leave no possible doubt of Dr. Emerson's manipulatory skill, or of the tasteful discrimination of the fellow art-workers." - The Globe.

"' Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads' is the name of a really beautiful book. . . . The text is descriptive, and pleasantly descriptive, of the scenes reproduced from nature. . . . We have seldom, perhaps never, seen such successful studies of landscape made by any mechanical process. . " - Daily News.

"It is enough to know that they are exquisitely beautiful. It has sometimes been contended that photography is not art. That view has had to be modified. It has been shown that in the hands of artists photography can be used with admirable effect. If proof of this be required, it will be found in this volume. There is nothing of the wooden stiffness of the old photographs about the pictures. . . . Some of them might be reproductions in monochrome of Corot's pictures. Light and shade are exquisitely managed. Every picture is arranged with the truest taste- . . . Then all the plates are redolent of the spirit of the scene."- Scotsman.

"The volume of Plates from Nature ' which Messrs. Emerson and Goodall have just published to illustrate' Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads'is an extraordinary achievement in photography. . - . Messrs. Emerson and Goodall have now taken them up, and mirrored their river highways and their shy retreats alike with a uniform success, which must have been the result of extraordinary skill and patience. ■ . . The peasants and watermen gave, it is clear, much information about life on the Broads, which the authors have occasionally worked up into very interesting letterpress." - Fall Mall Gazette.

"That beautiful series of forty plates, with their accompanying letterpress, illustrating ' Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads,' are an unanswerable refutation of those who say there is no art in photography. Mr. P. H. Emerson, B.A., and T. F. Goodall have been round the fens with camera and note-book to some purpose- . . . There is every quality in many of them of thoroughly good pictures. . . . No episode or incident seems to be inaccessible to these skilful artists." - Daily Telegraph.

"They have studied the Broads in all seasons and in all aspects, in the full light of the cloudless summer mornings, and in the autumn evenings when the light grows dim, and the result is forty plates in platinotype, of great variety, of singular interest, and of remarkable beauty. . . . Both the authors of the illustrative text are accomplished writers, and their articles are of unusual merit." - The School Board Chronicle.

"'Life and Landscape on the Norfolk Broads' is an epoch-making book, because such perfection of photography, such perfection of reproductive processes, and such perfection of artistic feeling have never before been brought together." - Amateur Photographer.

"Now and then in the past we hate seen occasional photographs such as Dr. Emerson now presents, but to him is due the credit of endeavouring to form a real and truthful school of photographic representation." - Photographic News.

"Thus we have fishermen and women engaged in all the phases of labour which the water-wastes of Norfolk afford, and all happily unconscious that they are standing for their portraits - none of them staring into the camera in ordinary photographic fashion, but all pursuing their avocations in an unaffected and natural manner. This is a rare excellence, which is deserving of all praise, and the value of the plates as truthful illustrations of the ordinary work and demeanour of the people is greatly enhanced by the judgment and skill manifested in this particular. . . . The letterpress which accompanies the plates is not the least entertaining part of the book." - Manchester Guardian.
