Du romantisme au réalisme : essai sur l'évolution de la peinture en France de 1830 à 1848
A 1914 Paris art-history study by Léon Rosenthal, published by H. Laurens, tracing how French painting moved from Romanticism to Realism between 1830 and 1848. Its plates are black-and-white halftone reproductions of paintings shown as full-page facing images with printed captions, rotated sideways on the page. The pictures offer a designer period compositions of dramatic gesture, crowded interiors, and heavy shadow, useful for reference on mid-nineteenth-century French painting.
