La storia della pittura veneziana
A survey of Venetian painting by Laudedeo Testi, published in Bergamo in 1909 by the Istituto italiano d'arti grafiche for readers of art history. The plates are halftone reproductions of altarpieces and devotional panels, mostly Madonna and saint compositions set within architectural frames. A designer might take from them the gilded arched frames, tiled marble floors, and symmetrical arrangements of standing saints around an enthroned Virgin.
