L'Exposition de Paris (1900)
An 1900 French illustrated periodical from the Encyclopédie du siècle, published in Paris by Montgredien et Cie, documenting the Exposition universelle of 1900 for a general reading public. Its pages mix printed text columns with photographic halftone views of exhibition halls, interiors and sculpture galleries. A designer could take from them the dense, ordered layout of late nineteenth-century magazine pages, with framed photographs set among columns of text and ornate architectural interiors shown in dramatic perspective.
