Antiquités, objets d'art : dessins, gravures, manuscrits; tableaux
This is an illustrated auction catalogue of antiques, art objects, drawings, prints, manuscripts and paintings, issued in Brussels in 1903 for the Salle Bluff sale rooms and held here through the Getty Research Institute. The reproductions are halftone plates of old-master style portraits and genre scenes, and a designer might take from them the soft tonal modelling, dark grounds and period costume of early European painting.
