A museum guide to the Madrid collections of the Prado, San Fernando and the Armeria, written by the French art critic Paul Lefort and published in Paris in 1896 for readers of the Gazette des Beaux-Arts. Its plates are reproduction line drawings and engravings of paintings and sculptures, with the pictures here showing a pair of carved standing figures, a mounted rider scene, a church interior with a crowd, and an enthroned Madonna with saints and donors that a designer could draw on for period costume and architectural setting.
