Katalog der kunstgeschichtlichen Ausstellung zu Erfurt : September 1903
An 1903 exhibition catalogue issued by the Angermuseum in Erfurt, Germany, and published in Magdeburg, documenting German medieval and early modern art shown in that city. The pictures are black-and-white photographic reproductions of altarpieces and panel paintings: a multi-tier carved and painted altar with saints in Gothic niches, sculpted figures on a shelf, a single panel of a crowd beneath a risen figure, and a central panel of the Coronation of Mary flanked by angels and saints. A designer could take from them the tiered framing of Gothic tracery, the rhythm of stacked figures in niches, and the radiating halo and cloud compositions.
