This 1912 scrap book of newspaper and magazine clippings, compiled by the New York dealer M. Knoedler & Co. while buying Henri Regnault's painting Salome at the Marquise Carcano sale, documents the work's reproduction and sale history. The pictures are rough halftone reproductions of a woman with flowing hair seated beside a basin, a Regnault figure study, and auction notices set among ornate tapestries and furniture, offering a designer period press layouts and the look of early twentieth-century newsprint.
