Katalog der ... Ausstellung der Berliner Secession, Berlin
An 1899 exhibition catalogue issued in Berlin by Paul Cassirer for the Berliner Secession, a group of German artists who broke from the official academy. The pictures are reproductions of paintings and a drawing shown at the show, printed as plates with German captions. The line drawing of two figures shows quick, economical contour work a designer could borrow for loose sketch style, while the tonal plates of trees, a garden path and a dark interior show dense, painterly values.
