Konventionen der Kunst; Aphoristisch

Scheffler, Karl, 1869-1951 · 1904 · Leipzig, J. Zeitler · 3 pictures

Konventionen der Kunst; Aphoristisch is a 1904 German art-theory book by Karl Scheffler, published in Leipzig by J. Zeitler, written for readers interested in art and its conventions. Its pages set aphoristic German prose in blackletter-style type beside decorative woodcut-like initials in olive and black and repeated square tile bands, so a designer can take from them a model for a bold display initial paired with a rhythmic border strip.
