A descriptive and historical catalogue of the collection of pictures and sculpture at Apsley House, London
A descriptive catalogue of paintings and sculpture held at Apsley House in London, published in 1901 by Longmans, Green and Co. for visitors and collectors interested in the Wellington collection. The two plates reproduce old paintings in soft tonal halftone: the first shows a woman with two children in a dark wooded landscape, and the second a crowded dramatic scene of figures and smoke. Designers can take from them the warm sepia tonal range, dense dark foliage, and tight grouping of figures for figurative composition studies.
