I.re exposition de collectionneurs : ouverte du 10 mars au 10 avril 1924 au profit de la Sociʹetʹe des Amis du Luxembourg: en l'Hotel de la Curiositʹe et des Beaux-Arts.

1924 · Paris : Frazier-Soye · 15 pictures

A 1924 Paris exhibition catalogue from the first show of private collectors, held at the Hotel de la Curiosite et des Beaux-Arts in aid of the Societe des Amis du Luxembourg, reproducing French twentieth-century paintings in monochrome halftone. The four pictures are soft, tonal studies: a figure in a fur hat seen in profile before a crowd, a whitewashed house beside a dusty road under cypresses, a ballet pair dancing by a window, and a bare-branched tree beside a building, printed sideways. A designer might take their muted grey tonal range and atmospheric, blurred edges for mood.
