Reminiscenze di storia ed arte nel suburbio e nella città di Milano

Fumagalli, Carlo, Sant'Ambrogio, Diego, Beltrami, L. (Luca), 1854-1933 · 1891 · Milano : Tip. Pagnoni · 32 pictures

An 1891 Milan photographic album printed by Tipografia Pagnoni, compiled by Carlo Fumagalli, Diego Sant'Ambrogio and L. Beltrami, documenting art and architecture of Milan and its outskirts for an educated Italian readership. The plates are sepia photographs, many shown sideways on the page, of carved doorways, frescoed interiors, a monastery courtyard and a colonnaded cloister. A designer could draw on their dense Lombard Romanesque and Renaissance ornament, such as carved relief panels, arched colonnades and ornamented stone portals.
