Exposition inaugurale de la salle des fêtes de la ville, sous les auspices de l'administration communale : 8 février-9 mars 1908 = Inhuldingingstentoonstelling der stadsfeestzaal, met de ondersteuning van het gemeentebestuur : 8 februari-9 maart 1908
This is an 1908 exhibition catalogue in French and Dutch, issued by the Royal Society for the Encouragement of Fine Arts in Antwerp to open the city's new festival hall. The four pictures are printed ornaments and devices rather than exhibit photographs: a grotesque mask in a cartouche, a foliate frieze, a floor plan with numbered bays, and a printer's device showing a man in period dress before a city skyline with the motto Sic typis spargit. A designer could draw on the strapwork, interlacing scrollwork, and the emblematic framing of the printer's mark for historicist borders and title pages.
