Description	"This quaint example is included to show how art work was disseminated prior to photomechanical printing using the photographic print. One of the major hurdles was not overcome until the 1890s when panchromatic emulsions were first perfected so that the colors translated correctly when rendered in tone. Edward Moran was the brother of Thomas, the painter and John, the photographer. He was famous in his own right as a marine painter."--Hanson Collection catalog, p. 22
