The collection of pictures of the late Herr A. de Ridder, formerly in his villa at Shönberg..
A 1913 New York catalogue of the private paintings collection of the late Herr A. de Ridder, formerly housed in his villa at Shönberg, reproducing Dutch old master works one per plate for collectors and art dealers. The four plates show halftone reproductions of portraits and a landscape: a woman in a lace collar and pearls, a bearded man in a wide-brimmed hat, a woman in a dark gown, and a wooded Dutch landscape with a path. A designer might take from them the restrained tonal palette of seventeenth-century Dutch painting, its dark grounds, and its deep white lace ruffs.
