"The Woodland Glade", by G. Chester, from the Royal Academy Exhibition, 1861. Engraving from a painting. 'In this broiling hot weather it is delicious to fall upon such a cool, calm retreat as that represented in Mr. Chester's clever landscape, "The Woodland Glade," exhibited at the Royal Academy, consisting of water, rock, and wild scattered trees, in admirable disorder. It has obviously been taken from nature, and selected with a fine eye for the picturesque'. From "Illustrated London News", 1861.
