A SrLLNDID PRIZE FOR THE LADIES !
A-
The finest, most pleasing, nnd costly engrav
ing ever published in America, to be presented
Sfi a premium to each subsaiber to
DEMOREST'S MONTHLY,
a magazine of practical utility in the house, a
mirror of the fashions', and a literary conser
vator of surpassing interest nnd artistio excel
ence, acknowledged to bo the modem parlor
magazine of America
The engraving, 28x32 inches, is from the or
iginal painting, entitled, 'The Pic-Nio on the
Fourth of July.'
The painting took a whole year, and is con
sidered the finest of the entire list of uumerous
populor productions by LillisM. Spencer. The
engraving was the labor of fcur years, by
three eminent artists John Rodgers, Samuel
Hnlpin, and Samuel Hollyer ; The last named
having been induced to come from Europe to
finish it. The engravers have ably seconded
the successful labors of the painter. None but
artists can fully appreciate the skill nnd labor
lavished on this engraving - The general ef
fect is very fine and impressive, md the deli
rate finish to the heads will bear the most mi
nute inspection. The union of liue'and stipple
is executed with unusual ability, and their
ekilful combination has greatly contributed to
the success of the engravers in this unsurpass
ed proof of their genius.
Thejwork on the engraving alone cost over
seven thousand dollars, besides the cost of the
copyright, and is acknowledged by competent
judges the most elaborately finished large work
of art evor engraved in America.
Fine copies of this magnificent picture, on
heavy plate paper, worth $10 each, are to bo
given as a premium to each subscriber to
DEMOREST'S MONTHLY MAGZINE.
Yearly subscriptions only Three Dollars, and
ten cents (which is to be sent with the sub
cription), for the postage on the engraving"
(which will be mailed securely done up ou s
roller.
This is certainly the largest, most liberal
and splendid premium ever offered to single
subscribers by rny publisher, and affords an
easy and economical way for any one to secure
an elegant work of art, a Parlor Picture that
is only next to a piano in the way of ornamen
tation, and a perpetual reminder of a day
which ought to to be cherished and held in re
membrance by every true American.
The reception of this magnificent picture
will take every one by surprise and we do not
venture anything in saying that $10 will not
procure another that combines so much of in
terest and beauty.
Specimens of the Magazine, with circulars,
giving full particulars, will be sent to any giv.
a address, post free oa receipt of 15 cents.
