Musée Bredius : guide avec catalogue abrégé des peintures et dessins / par G. Knuttel ; traduit par I. de Peterson.

Museum Bredius · 1928 · [Hague] : Le Musée · 18 pictures

A 1928 guide to the Museum Bredius in The Hague, written by G. Knuttel and translated into French for visitors, with a short catalogue of its paintings and drawings. The plates are black-and-white photographs of 17th-century Dutch interiors, portraits and a rendered head, along with a view of a room in the museum. A designer might take from them the tonal range of Dutch interior genre scenes, with strong window light falling across domestic rooms, figures in dark costume, and framed pictures hung on plain walls.
