An 1914 London auction catalogue from Sotheby, Wilkinson & Hodge, issued for the sale of the late Arthur Baker's collection of modern etchings, engravings, drawings and lithographs, mainly for collectors and dealers. Its plates are photographic reproductions of portrait paintings and mezzotint-style prints, each numbered beneath the image, showing seated and standing sitters in period dress against dark, painterly backgrounds with parapets, foliage and drapery that a designer could use for tonal, formal portrait studies.
