Das Museum : eine Anleitung zum Genuss der Werke bildender Kunst

Spemann, Wilhelm, 1844-1910, Graul, Richard, 1862-1944, Stettiner, Richard, 1865-1927 · 1896 · Berlin : W. Spemann · 19 pictures

An 1896 German art appreciation guide published in Berlin by W. Spemann, written by Wilhelm Spemann, Richard Graul and Richard Stettiner to teach general readers how to enjoy works of visual art. The pictures are sparse, rotated reproductions of paintings, a relief and a drawing, printed in halftone and grey tones. A designer could take from them a restrained, museum-catalogue presentation of classical sculpture, Dutch portraiture and Renaissance devotional drawing.
