Katalog der Kön. Gemälde Galerie zu Venedig
A 1914 Venetian catalogue of the Gallerie dell'Accademia paintings, compiled by Luigi Serra and published by C. Ferrari in Venice for art historians and collectors. Its plates are black-and-white halftone reproductions of Renaissance altarpieces and genre scenes, with numbered captions; several are printed sideways. A designer might take their dense architectural perspectives, balustrades and crowded group compositions as period reference for classical staging and composition.
