The art of the exposition : personal impressions of the architecture, sculpture, mural decorations, color scheme & other aesthetic aspects of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition

Neuhaus, Eugen, 1879-1963 · 1915 · San Francisco : P. Elder · 11 pictures

A 1915 art book by Eugen Neuhaus, published in San Francisco by P. Elder, giving personal impressions of the architecture, sculpture, murals and colour scheme of the Panama-Pacific International Exposition for an audience interested in art. The plates are photographs of exposition buildings and mural panels printed as full-page illustrations, with the captions set sideways in the margin. For a designer they show classical colonnades, arched courtyards and a paired decorative mural in muted, tonal ink, useful for period architectural reference and grand exposition-style layouts.
