Das Kaiser Friedrich Museum zu Berlin

Clemen, Paul, 1866-1947, Goldschmidt, Adolph, 1863-1944, Justi, Ludwig, 1876-1957, Schubring, Paul, 1869- · 1904 · Leipzig E. A. Seemann · 16 pictures

Das Kaiser Friedrich Museum zu Berlin is a 1904 photographic guide to the museum's galleries, published in Leipzig by E. A. Seemann and written by art historians Paul Clemen, Adolph Goldschmidt, Ludwig Justi and Paul Schubring for art-museum visitors and scholars. Its black-and-white photographs show whitewashed galleries crowded with Italian Renaissance sculpture, carved reliefs, busts, tapestries and framed panels mounted on walls and set on wooden stands. A designer might take from them the dense, orderly hanging of objects, the coffered ceilings and the marble-tiled floors of early twentieth-century museum display.
