Summary

Pathe synopsis: A far cry from photography to picture designs in pressed flowers and plants? Not to octogenarian Marcus Adam, the most famous child photographer of the century. In his cottage at Wargrave-on-Thames we see him creating pictures of striking beauty; we are, in fact, witnessing a new and wonderfuul art form.
