Catalogue of an exhibition of early engravings : Frederick Keppel & Co., New York, October 24th to November 14th, 1922 / with an introduction by David Keppel

1922 · New York : F. Keppel · 2 pictures

This is a 1922 exhibition catalogue of early European prints, published in New York by F. Keppel with an introduction by David Keppel, for collectors and dealers of fifteenth and sixteenth century engravings. The first picture shows a circular woodcut-style scene of a mounted knight with a lance attacking a dragon beneath a castle on a hilltop, framed by dense foliage and fine parallel hatching. A designer might take from it the strong circular composition and the bold black linework that fills a round format without empty space.
