Anderson Galleries, Inc, Freer, Charles Lang, 1854-1919, former owner. DSI-F · 1917 · New York : The Anderson Galleries · 15 pictures

This is a 1917 sale catalogue published in New York by the Anderson Galleries, listing old Chinese rugs, brocades, embroideries and silks gathered in Peking by Frederick Moore for American collectors and dealers. The four plates show textiles photographed rotated on the page, with dense patterned panels of flowers, roundels, a dragon, and a playing-children scene that a designer could draw on for surface pattern and border ideas.

Moore, Frederick
