Notas d'arte
Notas d'arte is a 1906 art-criticism volume by Antonio de Lemos, published in Porto by Typographia Universal, with halftone reproductions of paintings and a portrait of its author. The plates show a half-length figure of a young woman in a dark cloak holding flowers, a profile study of a woman in a headscarf, a reclining figure in a landscape, and a bearded man in a checked jacket. A designer could take from them the soft, smoky tonal modelling of late nineteenth-century Portuguese portraiture and its sombre palette.
