Joseph v. Kopf als Sammler : Beschreibung der von ihm hinterlassenen Sammlung

Pollak, Ludwig, b. 1868 · 1905 · Rom : Loescher (Bretschneider und Regenberg) · 20 pictures

A catalogue of the collection of Joseph von Kopf, a 19th-century collector, compiled by Ludwig Pollak and published in Rome in 1905 for scholars and collectors of classical antiquities. The plates show fragmentary terracotta figurines, carved heads, relief fragments and a marble bust of a child, photographed on cream paper with a sepia cast. A designer might take from them the weathered clay tones, the arrangement of small objects in grid layouts, and the soft archival photographic look.
