Alte Porträt-Graphik
A German antiquarian catalogue of old portrait prints, issued in 1900 by the Antiquariat Dieter Grosse-Wortmann in Lage, for collectors and print historians. Its plates are numbered engraved portraits of 16th and 17th century scholars and nobles, each set in an oval frame or stone plinth with an inscribed name. A designer can take the strong oval framing devices, the armour and lace collars, and the plain caption plinths as models for period portrait layouts.
