Full text

MADAME ANNA BISHOP.- A very accurate', and at the same time pleasing likeness of this popular vocalist, has just been drawn upon the stone by Mr. Cyrus Mason, and issued as a neat lithograph. It is copied from a photographic portrait by Mr. Perry, of Collins Street, and has obtained tho approbation of Madame Anna Bishop herself, a facsimile of whose autograph is appended to the engraving. The picture is in every respect creditable to the artist by whom it has been placed upon the stone.
