Schattenseiten der Düsseldorfer Maler: nebst verkürzten Ansichten ihrer letzten Leistungen
An 1845 German satirical lithograph album by Heinrich Ritter, with illustrations by Wilhelm Camphausen, mocking the working habits and studio life of painters in Düsseldorf, now held by Heidelberg University Library. The pictures are small pencil-like lithographs of artists at easels and in cluttered studios, drawn with light wit and close attention to props. A designer could take from them the crowded studio interior, the period dress, and the caricatured body language of working artists.
