Handbook of painting. The German, Flemish, and Dutch schools
Handbook of painting, the German, Flemish, and Dutch schools, written by Franz Kugler and Gustav Friedrich Waagen and published in London by Murray in 1860 for students and collectors of northern European painting. Its plates are monochrome line engravings after old panel and manuscript paintings, showing processions, crowded courtly groups, and Gothic architectural frames with figures in medieval dress, offering a designer clear models for compositional layout, figure grouping, and early Gothic ornament.
