Le musée : revue du Salon de 1834

Decamps, Alexandre-Gabriel, 1803-1860, Alexandre D, D....., Alexandre · 1834 · Paris : A. Ledoux, libraire · 25 pictures

Le musée is an 1834 Paris review of the Salon, published by A. Ledoux and issued with lithographic and etched plates by Alexandre-Gabriel Decamps, a Romantic painter, for an audience of art readers. The plates are rotated on the page and show genre scenes, street and village views, and interiors in loose, dark hatched lines, which a designer might take as a model for expressive, high-contrast tonal shading with broad black masses and scratchy edges.
