Evans' decisive gift is, of course, the gift of seeing...A moment's examination of his cathedral interiors, in which the obscurist detail in the corners seems as delicately penciled by the darkness as the flood of sunshine through window or open door is penciled by the light, without a trace of halation or overexposure, will convince any expert that he is consummate at all points, as artist and negative-maker, no less as printer. (George Bernard Shaw, 'Evans -- An Appreciation, Camera Work, Number 4, October 1903)
