Exhibition of works by the old masters and deceased masters of the British School : winter exhibition, forty-first year, MDCCCCX
A London exhibition catalogue of old master and deceased British paintings, issued by the Royal Academy of Arts in 1910 and printed by W. Clowes for the winter show's visitors and collectors. The single picture is a framed engraved plate with a coat of arms, two round vignettes of landscapes, and a small view of a building with a caption beneath, set on a blue ground. A designer might take its symmetrical heraldic layout, with a central crest flanked by roundels and a framed panel, as a model for formal bookplate-style framing.
