Siena
Siena is a 1901 art-historical guide published in Leipzig and Berlin by E. A. Seemann, written by Luise Marie Richter for readers interested in the city's painting and sculpture. Its pictures are halftone reproductions of Sienese relief sculpture, frescoes and altarpieces showing Madonnas, saints and biblical scenes, with pale grey tones and architectural frames that a designer could use for historic devotional imagery, Renaissance composition or muted sepia palettes.
