| TEXT | In probably no branch of the arts have more improvements been made during recent years than in that of photography, and the avidity with which these inventions have been utilized by the profession is a convincing proof of the spirit of enterprise which has always been a distinguishing feature of those engaged in this business. This portrait gallery has only recently been established by Mr. C. Hoffmann at No. 1288 Broadway, though for the last eighteen years he has been associated with the famous house of "Sarony," and occupied a leading and important position in that establishment. The whole of the appliances and apparatus are of the newest and best, and indeed comprise as perfect an establishment of the kind as can be, found in the city. All photographs are taken by the dry-plate process, which insures instantaneous effects and does away with the unpleasant smell of ether and collodion, which is characteristic of studios operated by the old methods. Portraits are executed in oil, water-colors, pastel, crayon, India ink, in the highest style of art, from locket to life size, from original pictures or from life, at very low prices, satisfaction being guaranteed in all cases. Pictures are also taken by a new instantaneous process which has been patented by Mr. Hoffmann, and thus patrons are enabled to obtain accurate and perfect photographs of themselves and their children, especially the babies. Recent years have wrought wonderful changes in the photographer's art, and he who has not had a portrait of himself taken is very much behind the tunes. It is a sacred duty to obtain a good likeness of our loved ones. This is a matter that should be attended to in life, for when death comes it is often a subject of regret that the visit to the artist was delayed. We conscientiously recommend those who have not yet fulfilled this necessary duty to pay a visit to Mr. Hoffmann's gallery, where they will receive every care and attention. Mr. Hoffmnnn is a native of New York, and is highly esteemed in social circles for his strict rectitude, and justly merits the success that has attended his well directed efforts. |
