Katalog der Gemäldesammlung von Frau Prof. J. J. Bachofen-Burckhardt

Bachofen, Luise Elisabeth, 1845-1920, Burckhardt, Rudolf F. (Rudolf Friedrich), b. 1877 · 1907 · Basel : Schweighauserische Buchdruckerei · 35 pictures

A 1907 Basel catalogue of the painting collection of Frau Prof. J. J. Bachofen-Burckhardt, compiled by Luise Elisabeth Bachofen and Rudolf F. Burckhardt for collectors and art historians interested in Dutch and Flemish painting. The four plates are gallery reproductions printed in grey halftone, with numbered captions, and show a tavern-style genre scene, a crowded battle or hunting scene, a dense allegorical group, and a shadowy landscape with trees. A designer might borrow their dramatic chiaroscuro, layered crowds and moody tonal range for atmospheric compositions.
