Goeree, Willem, Lange, Johann [Übers.] · 1723 · 2 pictures

A German translation of Willem Goeree's 1723 treatise on the general art of painting, printed in Europe and published for students and practitioners learning the craft of painting. The two pictures are small woodcut vignettes of a flower and fruit basket set on a scrolled cartouche, with dense hatched shading and a plain paper ground. A designer might take from them the model of a compact decorative tailpiece, showing how a basket of blossoms and fruit can fill a narrow horizontal space above an ornamental base.
