Sixth Annual Fair Of The State Agricultural Society.  Sixth Day…

The Exhibition.  The Picture Gallery…

East Room.  In the northeast corner of this wing of the Pavillion are placed the daguerreotypes, ambrotypes and photographs of D. H. Woods, Sacramento.  They embrace about nineteen specimens, and besides fine portraits, contains excellent landscape views.  The next left hand collection is part of Vance’s (San Francisco and Sacramento) exhibition, consisting chiefly of a series of beautiful views of yo Semite Falls and scenery.  There are thirteen of these views, each remarkably clear and well taken; the excite much admiration…

West Room…

The remainder of the south wall is occupied by the fine display of photographs done in every variety of style, and exhibited by Hamilton & Lovering, San Francisco.  Between some of the pictures, and the splendid show down stairs by Vance, it is hard to choose.  We have not time to specify the particular merits of each collection.  It is sufficient to say that both firms have brought the art of photographing, in taking portraits, to high perfection.  These two exhibits of pictures are among the chief attractions of the Fair.

Photographs.—The exhibit of photographs of various styles, ambrotypes and other camera pictures [is] not extensive.  They fill however, the walls of the [ ? ] room.  The largest exhibit, if not the most artistic display, is from Hamilton & Lovering, of San Francisco.  They occupy nearly the whole of the north wall.  The east wall is hung with specimens from W. H. Towne’s photograph gallery, Sacramento.  The south wall is taken up with the photographs of J. Shew, of Sacramento, and there is a large display and variety in the center of the same wall, sent down by A.

Shew, of San Francisco; and, to complete the list Dickman, of this city, covers the east side with some of his highly finished India ink photographs and other specimens.  Few as are the contributions, in proportion to the number of photograph establishments in the State, they present: not only a fine display, but exhibit the very highest specimens of the art in all its styles.
