Inventaire général des dessins du Musée du Louvre et du Musée de Versailles; école française
A catalogue of the Louvre and Versailles drawing collections, compiled by Jean Guiffrey, Pierre Marcel and René Huyghe and published in Paris in 1907 for scholars and collectors of French art. Its plates show pen, chalk and wash studies of mythological and religious scenes, horsemen, classical figures and crowded battle groups, reproduced as small grey halftones that a designer could use for period figure poses, draped costume and dynamic group composition.
