The drawings of Claude : with an essay

Fry, Roger, 1866-1934 · 1907 · London : Burlington Magazine · 26 pictures

A 1907 London art-magazine publication by Roger Fry, reproducing drawings by the seventeenth-century French landscape painter Claude Lorrain for an educated art-interested readership. The plates are rotated on the page, and they show wooded landscapes with broad trees, distant buildings and soft tonal shading, which a designer might take as a reference for atmospheric foliage and layered depth in monochrome landscape work.

Lorrain, Claude, 1600-1682
