Moderne Maler
Moderne Maler is a German art-criticism volume issued in Leipzig by E. Diederichs in 1902, combining John Ruskin's writing with Charlotte Snethlage Broicher's commentary on modern painters. The pictures are small Art Nouveau tailpieces and headpieces in grey-green line and tone, built from symmetrical whiplash curves, stylised leaves and flame-like tendrils. A designer could borrow their mirrored compositions and tapering ornamental borders for decorative panels and rules.
