The Anonimo; notes on pictures and works of art in Italy
The Anonimo is a 1903 London art-historical reference by George Charles Williamson and others, drawn from the notes of Marcantonio Michiel on pictures and sculpture in Italy, printed for scholars and collectors. The plates reproduce Italian Renaissance reliefs and paintings, including panels of St. Anthony miracles and a portrait by Lorenzo Lotto, shown as halftone photographs. A designer might take from them the crowded, shallow-relief compositions of narrative sculpture, the dense groups of robed figures, and the tonal range of sober period portraiture.
