The art of the Low Countries; studies by Wilhelm R. Valentiner;
A 1914 art history volume by Wilhelm R. Valentiner, published in Garden City, New York by Doubleday, Page & Company, surveying Low Countries painting with plates reproduced as full-page halftones. The pictures are Rubens baroque compositions of crowded figures in motion, such as the Entrance of Henry IV into Paris, the Rape of the Sabines, and a wolf and boar hunt; a designer might take from them the diagonal energy and dense, churning group arrangements of the period.
