Amsterdam (Netherlands). Stedelijk Museum · 1922 · Amsterdam : Het Museum · 38 pictures

A 1922 museum catalogue published by the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, listing paintings, drawings and sculptures gathered for a public collection of contemporary art in the city. The four plates shown are rotated gravure-style reproductions of paintings with numbered captions, including a figure study, a wooded landscape, a crowd before an arched building, and a riverside scene with trees. A designer might take from them the loose, tonal handling of late nineteenth-century Dutch and European painting, with soft grey values and broad brushwork reduced to halftone.
