The West American Scientist. 



PORTRAIT OF 



A new etching by G. Nercier, of Paris, pupil and colaboration of the 

 eminent Rajon, recently deceased. 



Size of plate 12^x15^ inches. One of the finest etched portraits ever 

 executed; showing in every detail the lines of character in the facial ex- 

 pression of the great scientist, and giving the head in a bold yet highly 

 artistic pose. The tones and textures are managed with such consummate 

 artistic skill by this master of the etchings-needle that the whole effect 

 combined is most striking and unique. 



A grand portrait of a grand man.
