A list of the paintings, sculptures, miniatures, &c., with 108 illustrations
A catalogue of the National Portrait Gallery in London, published in 1912 by His Majesty's Stationery Office, listing paintings, sculptures and miniatures with 108 illustrations of sitters. The plates are halftone reproductions of oil portraits showing bust-length or half-length figures against dark backgrounds, with captions beneath each sitter's name and date. A designer might take from them the restrained tonal palette, dark grounds with a single lit face, and the period costume of collars, cravats and robes.
