James Bragge - Splendid Scenic Gems

‘Mr Bragge, photographer, of Lambton Quay, has just published a series of exquisite views of the splendid scenery of the road over the Rimutaka and the Wairarapa district. These pictures have been taken with a delicacy and sharpness which we have never seen excelled in photographs of scenery. In every instance the point of view has been selected with admirable judgement and the result is a splendid selection of scenic gems.’
