Het schildersboek. : Nederlandsche schilders der negentiende eeuw in monographieën door tijdgenooten
Het schildersboek is a late nineteenth-century Dutch art book, published in Antwerp in 1898, presenting monographs by contemporaries on Dutch painters of the nineteenth century for an art-loving readership. The four pictures are halftone reproductions of paintings, shown turned on the page, with a dark, misty pastoral landscape of cattle and grazing sheep, a gnarled tree over a field, and a wooden fence beside a haystack that a designer could draw on for tonal, low-contrast rural scenes.
