Illustrated catalogue of the valuable pictures by the Barbizon masters, their contemporaries the French impressionists and modern French painters forming the private collection of the connoisseur Mr. Meyer Goodfriend, New York-Paris : to be sold at unrestricted public sale in the assembly hall of the American Art Galleries ..
An auction catalogue issued by the American Art Association in New York in 1923, listing the private collection of connoisseur Meyer Goodfriend of Barbizon and French impressionist paintings for public sale. The four plates are reproductions of landscapes: rotated tree-lined scenes with brooding skies, a dusky pastoral with figures, and a riverbank with seated figures beneath trees. A designer might draw on their soft tonal layering, feathery foliage masses and hazy atmospheric skies as references for muted naturalistic landscape work.
