64 autotypier
A plate book of 64 autotype reproductions of European paintings, published around 1891, probably in Denmark, and likely for art-study or collectors' use. The plates are halftone reproductions of Dutch and Flemish genre scenes, religious subjects, portraits and harbour views, each captioned with artist and title. A designer might take from them the tonal range of old-master compositions, the formal portrait poses with lace collars, and the bustling ship and sea scenes with billowing sails.
