| Description | Letter dated 29 December 1882 to Macdonald from J.C. Hook, R.A., Silverbeck, Churt, Farnham, [Surrey], thanking for amusing Christmas card, and with comments on Punch illustrators: 'I do not know who is to succeed the quartet of Keene, Sambourne, Tenniel and Du Maurier. Men should not mind the silly ignorant jaw of the journals many of the Art criticisms are done by Girls the Critics Day at the R.A. at least finds the rooms half full of petticoats taking notes'. |
