Zeitschrift des Historischen Vereins für Niedersachsen
A periodical issued in 1850 in Hannover by the Historischer Verein für Niedersachsen, the historical society of Lower Saxony, aimed at scholars and members interested in the region's antiquities. Its plates are lithographed drawings of megalithic tombs and stone settings, rendered in soft grey tone with dense rough stones, grass and trees; a designer might take their loose hatched texture and the strong horizontal layout of the landscape pages as reference for natural, archaeological subject matter.
