Geschichte der Malerei
Richard Muther's Geschichte der Malerei is a German-language survey history of painting, published in Berlin by Neufeld & Henius in 1912 for general readers and art students. Its pictures are halftone reproductions of Italian Renaissance altarpieces and devotional paintings, rendered in grey tones with strong architectural settings of arcades, coffered vaults and marble columns that a designer could use for classical perspective and composition study.
