Cosmos
Cosmos is a Portuguese miscellany printed in Lisbon in 1907 by the Typographia Adolpho de Mendonça, covering arts and modern civilization for a general reading public. Its pictures mix a sketched costume scene of two period figures, a studio portrait of a man in a dark coat, a dense crowded interior with figures, and a comic staircase tumble, all in loose pen and wash line work that suggests how a designer might handle crowd scenes, period dress and expressive gesture.
