Die neue Welt: Sammlung photographischer Aufnahmen
Die neue Welt is a 1910 German photographic survey of North America, compiled by Gerhard Stein from photographs for German-speaking readers, with plates drawn from Heidelberg University Library's digitised copy. The plates are sober documentary photographs of towns, campuses and hillside landscapes, and a designer could take from them a plain, archival record of early twentieth-century American architecture and streetscapes, with strong horizon lines and tree-lined grounds.
