Bibliothek für Kunst- und Antiquitätensammler: Bronze: Statuetten und Geräte
This is a German-language collectors' handbook on bronzes, Bibliothek für Kunst- und Antiquitätensammler: Bronze: Statuetten und Geräte, written by Frida Schottmüller and published in 1921, aimed at collectors of antiquities and decorative art. The pictures are black-and-white photographic plates of small bronze statuettes, mostly standing figures shown against plain backgrounds with even lighting that reveals surface patina and modelling, useful for a designer studying classical and Renaissance figure poses, drapery folds and the dark metallic tonality of aged bronze.
