Exposition nationale des beaux-arts : explication des ouvrages de peinture, sculpture, gravure, dessin et lithographie exposes au salon de 1848
This 1848 catalogue of the Brussels national fine arts exhibition, published by J.-B.-J. de Mortier, lists the paintings, sculptures, prints, drawings and lithographs shown at the Salon that year, aimed at visitors and collectors. Its two pictures are wood-engraved tailpieces: one shows a palette, brushes, laurel sprigs, a sculptor's tools and a framed painting on a ledge, the other a scrolled cartouche holding a palette and brushes above a laurel wreath, both usable as compact decorative motifs for art-themed borders or headers.
