Galerie lithographiée de son altesse royale monseigneur le duc d'Orléans, dédiée a son altesse royale madame la duchesse d'Orléans
This is a French lithographed album of paintings from the collection of the Duke of Orléans, edited by Jean Vatout and J. P. Quénot and printed in Paris in 1824 by Gaultier-Laguionie, dedicated to the duchess. The plates reproduce old master and contemporary paintings as tonal lithographs, with figure groups, interiors and landscapes. A designer might take from them the soft grey tonal modelling and dramatic chiaroscuro typical of early lithographic reproduction.
