Elsevier's geïllustreerd maandschrift
Elsevier's geïllustreerd maandschrift is a Dutch illustrated monthly magazine published in Amsterdam in 1891, carrying literature and art for a general educated readership. Its pictures are black-and-white wood engravings and halftone reproductions, several printed sideways, showing rural landscapes, a farmhouse among trees, a canal-side town and a pair of figures in a doorway, with loose tonal shading a designer could borrow for atmospheric backgrounds.
