Ein Jahrhundert französischer Malerei
A German-language survey of French painting by the critic Richard Muther, published in Berlin by S. Fischer in 1901, and drawn from the Getty Research Institute's holdings. Its plates reproduce paintings and drawings in black and white, several with the artist's signature or caption set beneath the image. The pictures show a dark interior with a figure group, a rotated plate of mounted riders on a plain, a seated woman in a veil drawn in fine pencil lines, and a robed standing figure beside a prone body in an ornate courtyard, offering a designer studies of tonal contrast and line hatching.
