facing, etc. (The case placed in this alcove contains theSaxtou engraving machine. 

 For specimeus of work done on it, see the wing-frames on the standard between al- 

 coves 4 and 5.) 



Alcove 4. — Lithography: Tools, materials, and appliances. The various methods 

 of lithography (crayon, pen-and-ink, engraving, brush-work, color-printing, etc.). 

 Transferring. Printing. — Zincography.— On the wall above the alcove: A chromo- 

 lithograph in its various stages. 



Standard between alcoves 4 and 5. — Miscellaneous processes, partly chemical, partly 

 mechanical, devised as substitutes for the older hand processes, but not involving 

 photography: Chalcotype, Comte process, Gillot process, etching in relief (typo- 

 graphic etching, properly so-called), chemitype, the graphotype, the kaolatype, the 

 wax process and allied processes (glyphography, kerography, stylography, typo- 

 graphic etching improperly so called, etc.), machine relief-engraving, machine intag- 

 lio-engraving (medai-ruling), galvanography, stenochromy, mineralography, nature 

 printing, the anastatic process, etc. — Appendix: Etching on glass (improperly so 

 called), which involves photography, but not the use of the press. 



Alcove 5. — Photo-mechanical processes, involving the production of gelatine or 

 other glutinous films, to be used as printing surfaces in the lithographic press, 

 i. e., collographic or photo-gelatine printing processes (albertype, heliotype, artotype, 

 etc.). 



Alcove 6. — Photo-mechanical processes producing relief blocks for printing in the 

 type-press (etching, swell gelatine, and washout processes): line processes. Half- 

 tone processes, i. e., gelatine grain processes (Paul Pretsch's and later) ; screen pro- 

 cesses (Meiseubach, etc.); the Ives process. 



Alcove 7. — Photo-mechanical processes involving the production of printable designs 

 on stone or zinc, i. e., photolithography and photozincography : Half-tone processes 

 (the bitumen process, Poitevin's process, Asser's process, etc.; recent grain processes ; 

 screen processes). Line processes (Osborne's process). 



Alcove 8. — Photo-mechanical processes producing intaglio-plates for printing in the 

 copper- plate press, i. e., photogravure: Etching processes, deposit processes, etc. 

 (Fox Talbot's, Paul Pretsch's and later processes). — The Woodbury type: films, 

 molds, and impressions. 



WESTERX SIDE OF THE HALL. 



BEGINNING AT THE SOUTHERN END. 



Alcove 1. — Drawing and painting: Metal-point, lead-pencil, crayon, pastel, char- 

 coal, pen-and-ink, Iudia ink, sepia, miniature painting on ivory, water-color paint- 

 ing, oil-painting. Appendix: Blot pictures, silhouettes, scissors pictures, stenciling, 

 etc.— The monotype. — Illustrations of the history of painting (by means of carbon 

 prints, etc.). 



Alcove 2. — Relief-engraving (the wood-cut, wood-engraving, relief-engraving on 

 metal) : Historical illustrations from the fifteenth century to the present time. 



Alcove 'A. — Intaglio-engraving (burin or graver work, dry-pointing, imitation of 

 crayon, stipple, mezzotint, etc.): Historical illustrations from the fifteenth century 

 to the present time. 



Alcove 4. — Intaglio-engraving continued (etching, soft-ground etching, aquatint) : 

 Historical illustrations from the sixteenth century to the present time. 



Alcove 5. — Lithography: Historical illustrations from the beginning of the nine- 

 teenth century to the present time. 



Alcove 6. — Color-printing: Historical illustrations from the sixteenth century to 

 the present time. (Relief-engraving: the old chiaroscuros; modern wood-engraving. 

 The Baxter process. Intaglio-engraving: Printed at one impression, /'. e., from the 

 piate rubbed in in different colors; printed from several plates. Stenochromy. 

 Cbromolithography. Wax process, etc. The modern photo-mechauical processes 

 applied to color-priutiug. )
