Katalog der ... Ausstellung
This is an exhibition catalogue from the Künstlerbund Hagen, published in Vienna in 1901 for visitors to its art show, reproducing paintings, portraits and a sculpted bust by its artists in halftone plates. The pictures are mostly dark, moody tonal studies: a costumed woman and children in an ornate painting, a seated woman in black against a pale ground, an older woman with a hand to her head in low light, and a veiled child's marble-like bust on a carved plinth. A designer might take their restrained palette of blacks and greys and their strong single-figure compositions.
