L'Ecole belge de peinture, 1830-1905
A survey of Belgian painting from 1830 to 1905, written by critic Camille Lemonnier and published in Brussels in 1906 for art readers and collectors. Its plates reproduce paintings as small black-and-white halftones, with labelled triptychs and single canvases of crowds, street scenes, and rural figures that show how Belgian naturalist painters composed groups and handled soft grey light.
