Bilderkatalog der Photographischen Gesellschaft : Kunstverlag begrun̈det 1862

Photographische Gesellschaft, Berlin · 1903 · Berlin : [selbsverlag] · 38 pictures

This is a German photographic trade catalogue issued in Berlin in 1903 by the Photographische Gesellschaft, a fine-art publisher founded in 1862, offering reproductions of paintings and genre scenes to buyers and collectors. The pictures are halftone reproductions of Dutch-style and academic paintings, showing interiors, a seated musician and figure pairs, and a grieving draped woman, with soft tonal shading that suggests period picture-making for designers studying historical composition and lighting.
