Kongelige malerisamling--klassisk kunst
A 1907 Copenhagen catalogue of the Royal Picture Collection's classical paintings, published by V. Tryde for the Statens museum for kunst and its visitors, reproducing works by Dutch and Flemish masters as monochrome plates. The plates are printed rotated on the page, with captions running up the margin. A designer could take from them the tonal range of early photogravure reproductions: soft grey mists, dark wooded silhouettes, and crowded figure groups with strong chiaroscuro.
