Adam Krafft : eine Erzählung aus dem Kunstleben Alt-Nürnbergs ; mit 6 Abbildungen
A late nineteenth-century German prose narrative by Julius Richter, published in 1899 by Carl Flemming, set in the art world of old Nuremberg around the sculptor Adam Krafft and intended for a general German reading public. Its illustrations are halftone photographs of Krafft's sculpted reliefs, including the Landauer Schreyer tomb relief and a stone calvary group, all shown in grainy black-and-white. A designer could take from them the dense, crowded compositions of late Gothic relief carving and the sober monochrome tone of early photographic reproduction.
