Here Doré’s pictures are used as he intended them to be, as illustrations, and not as separate plates, the text of a critical essay running around them instead of preceding them. The wood-engravings are very well reproduced in line, all their fine cutting remaining sharp, and the openly-set text, legible for its rather long line, complementing them and letting them breathe in their uncrowded arrangement.
