Storia della pittura del secolo XIX
This 1915 Milanese survey of nineteenth-century painting, written by Léonce Bénédite and Gino Fogolari for general art readers, is illustrated with halftone reproductions of canvases. The plates show painterly studio scenes, a wedding group under veils, a costumed interior with a feathered hat, and a rotated panorama of arched architecture and crowds; a designer might take loose brushwork, dim tonal palettes, and intimate genre composition from them.
