Inventaire des objets d'art appartenant à l'Administration générale de l'assistance publique à Paris
An inventory catalogue of art objects owned by the Paris public assistance administration, compiled by Marcel Fosseyeux and published by Berger-Levrault in Paris in 1910 for the administration's own records. Its plates record sculpture and painting held in the city's hospices and charitable institutions, shown as photographic reproductions in black and white. A designer could draw on the plain, documentary framing of memorial reliefs, marble altarpieces and a bedridden figure in a dim interior, with strong contrast and formal architectural settings.
