A catalogue of a collection of pictures & drawings, signed proof engravings, and prints, from various private and other sources ..
A 1920 London auction catalogue from Robinson, Fisher & Harding, offering pictures, drawings, signed proof engravings and prints from private and other sources, preserved by the Getty Research Institute. The pages show rotated photographs of period interiors: a stair hall with tapestry-like wall hangings, a dining room with carved chairs, a room hung with watercolours, and a gallery of framed pictures on a dark ground. A designer could take from them the crowded hanging arrangements and dark-wood period furnishing of early twentieth-century English collecting.
