American paintings and sculpture contributed to the "Second Prize Fund Exhibition"
An 1886 catalogue of American paintings and sculpture shown at the Second Prize Fund Exhibition, issued by the American Art Association of New York for collectors and art-going readers. The pictures are rotated black-and-white reproductions of landscape and genre scenes, with tree-lined paths, a wooded riverbank, and a figure group beside a railway track, drawn in loose hatched lines that suggest a designer could borrow their tonal, atmospheric sketching style.
