Catalogue of the paintings in the Corcoran Gallery of Art
A 1909 catalogue issued by the Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C., listing its paintings with a reproduction of each work, printed for collectors and museum visitors. The pictures are black-and-white halftone plates, rotated sideways on the page, showing landscapes and scenes of rural and town life in a soft, tonal style a designer could use for period atmosphere, sepia-toned layouts, or vintage gallery captions.
