Mural painting
Mural Painting by F. Hamilton Jackson, published in London by Sands and Co. in 1904, is a survey of Italian wall painting drawn from Florentine, Roman and Sienese churches and chapels. The plates are reproductions of frescoes, with captions naming each artist, church and subject, so a designer can see how Renaissance and medieval figures were arranged within architectural frames. The scenes show architectural interiors with arched niches, decorative borders and crowded narrative groups, useful for composition, framing and the layering of figures in a panel.
