Perfect in their old English suggestions
by deickemeyer2018-05-25

"A romantic story with an artist as its hero. There is true art in the picture and one very excellent thing in it is the consistent early Georgian atmosphere all through it. The thatch on the houses, the tap room and kitchen of the inn are perfect in their old English suggestions. People will surely like this two-reel offering. Some lonely pictures and a couple of perfect landscapes with fine cloud effects are included. - The Moving Picture World, March 7, 1914..."
