Rules of the Photographic Society Club. MDCCCLVI. "Sounds which address the ear are lost and die / In one short hour; but that which strikes the eye / Lives long upon the mind; the faithful sight / Engraves the knowledge with a beam of light." Watts.
The epigraph quotes Isaac Watts (1674-1748), The improvement of the mind, London: Printed for James Brackstone, 1741, translating Horace, Ars poetica, vv. 180-182
