Art division.

In this division the aim of the work is to give æsthetic pleasure alone, and the artist’s only wish is to produce works of art. Such work can be judged only by trained artists, and the aims and scope of such work can be fully appreciated only by trained artists. Photographers who qualify themselves by an art training, and their works alone, belong to this class. They alone are artists. Included in this class would be original artists, first-rate photo-etchers, and typo-blockmakers, whose aim is to reproduce in facsimile all the artistic quality of original works of art. Such photographers should have an artistic training without fail, as all the best have had.
