 A NOOMRYA AND HIS DAUGHTER. (312)

S much as is known of the Noomryas has been related in reference to plate 287 (ante). In that case the subject was a soldier fully accoutred; in the present, a man of peaceful pursuits is shown, with a timid little daughter, glancing upwards with her large soft eyes. The subject is altogether very charming and picturesque, and the attitudes and costume of father and daughter admirably given.
