Third annual exhibition of the New York Water Color Club
An 1892 exhibition catalogue issued by the New York Water Color Club, printed in New York, reproducing works by its members, mostly as monochrome halftone or wash reproductions. The plates show a rain-umbrella figure in a long coat, a woman knitting by a window, a blank landscape with a dark treeline turned sideways, and a woman in a wide-brimmed hat lit from a window. A designer could take from them the loose, sketchy shading of figures against pale grounds, and the soft window light used to define a face.
