Augsburg
Augsburg by Berthold Riehl, published in Leipzig by E. A. Seemann in 1903, is an art-historical guide to the Bavarian city, drawing on its churches, chapels and civic architecture. The pictures are black-and-white halftone photographs of interiors, Gothic church façades and carved altarpieces and reliefs, with dense ornament, pale stone and deep shadow that a designer could study for architectural detail, sculpted tracery and tonal contrast.
