Rosenborg : en illustreret vejledning gennem de danske kongers kronologiske samling
An illustrated guide, published in Copenhagen in 1900 by F. Hendriksen and written by Bering Liisberg, that walks visitors through the chronological collection of the Danish kings at Rosenborg Castle. The pictures are black-and-white halftone photographs of royal treasures: a gold watch with chased repoussé casing, an oval portrait in an ornate carved frame crowned with a royal diadem, a marble statue of a huntress with a hound on a stone pedestal, and small medallions bearing royal portraits. A designer could draw on their dense baroque ornament, cartouches, cherubs and scrollwork, all rendered in fine tonal detail.
