Illustrated London News (ILN)

The ILN began publication in 1842. It was a weekly periodical that brought pictures (engravings, etchings, and later photographs) to the masses. Shipping pictures and yachting portraits are relatively sought after, since there were relatively uncommon. These prints are clippings from the ILN, with text on the reverse. Often these were hand colored by modern artists as was inlship002.

The major editors/artists were Edward Wheedon and Joseph Wells.
