Tornai Gyula : gyűjteményes kiállitásának : katalogusa
An exhibition catalogue issued in Budapest in 1917 by the Nemzeti Szalon, presenting the collected works of the Hungarian painter Gyula Tornai for its public showing. The pictures are black-and-white reproductions of his paintings set in ornate painted frames, showing nude and draped figures in Oriental or biblical interiors such as a bath scene with Susanna and a seated group of figures with books. A designer might take from them the decorative framing borders, the rich architectural backdrops and the theatrical arrangement of figures in tiled rooms.
