Exhibition of American paintings
An exhibition catalogue of American paintings issued by the John Nicholson Gallery in New York in 1900, reproducing works for a general art-going public. The pictures are sepia halftone plates of landscapes: a river valley with a distant bridge and cliffs, sunlit dunes with figures walking along them, two figures seated on a grassy ridge, and a rocky gorge with trees and a horse-drawn cart. A designer might take their tonal range and soft, hazy atmosphere as a model for muted vintage landscape backdrops.
