Catalogue of early German and Flemish woodcuts preserved in the Department of Prints and Drawings in the British Museum
A scholarly museum catalogue published in London in 1903 by the British Museum's Department of Prints and Drawings, compiled by Campbell Dodgson, listing early German and Flemish woodcuts held in its collection. The pictures are reproduced woodcuts: the first is a framed scene with a cloaked figure beside a crowded interior and foliage border, the second shows a kneeling figure before a seated ruler, the third a crowd gathered in a walled courtyard under a star, and the fourth a robed man with a staff beside a blasted tree. Their dense hatching and framed compositions suggest sixteenth-century German print-making, useful to a designer studying early line work and framed narrative layouts.
