Elsevier's geïllustreerd maandschrift
Elsevier's geïllustreerd maandschrift is a Dutch illustrated monthly magazine published in Amsterdam in 1891, carrying art and literature for a general reading public. Its pictures are loose pen-and-ink and wash sketches: a rotated page of figure drawing, a woman with a water jar, a seated woman with a parasol, and a woodland scene with a small church. A designer might take from them the quick, hatched line of late nineteenth-century magazine illustration and its informal, observational composition.
