A harbour, a mountain accident and political upheaval could all become news in The Graphic, the illustrated weekly newspaper that began in 1869. The prints here include Thiers' house in Paris, Pillar in the Cumberland hills, a mountain pass at Zermatt, Korosko in Egypt and the harbour at Ambleteuse. Each is both a view and part of a contemporary news story, with the caption and date tying the picture to its event.
