According to editors of the Project Gutenberg web version of Trollope's great novel about stock fraud and railway mania, these illustrations were originally believed to be my Luke Fildes but are actually by Fawkes, who does an excellent job with the details of indoor and outdoor scenes alike but produces rather heavy illustrations. M. Linton, son of the important illustrator and engraver, William James Linton, did the engravings, and the responsibility for the coarseness of these images may possibly lay with him rather than with the artist. — George P. Landow.
