Zur Entwicklung des zeichnerischen Stils in der Cölner Goldschmiedekunst des XII. Jahrhunderts
A 1917 German art-historical study by Luise Straus, published in Strassburg by J.H.E. Heitz, tracing drawing style in twelfth-century Cologne goldsmith work. Its plates are black-and-white photographs of reliquary caskets and shrines, showing engraved and chased figures, medallions and arcaded sides in close detail. A designer could take from them the dense interlace borders, roundel compositions and arcade rhythms of Romanesque metalwork.
