Kunst-chronik

1866 · Leipzig : E.A. Seemann · 11 pictures

This 1866 Leipzig periodical, Kunst-chronik, was published by E.A. Seemann for art and decorative arts readers, and these pictures are printed advertisement slips and trade notices rather than plates. The first three show a Zürich proof-print announcement with bold condensed capitals, ruled borders, and a dense list of numbered entries. The fourth is a boxed German notice offering original etchings by contemporary artists, useful to a designer studying nineteenth-century typographic hierarchy, bordered text blocks, and the framing of commercial announcements.
