Second session : American and European paintings, numbers 82-119
An auction catalogue issued in 1928 by Anderson Galleries in New York, listing American and European paintings from the George S. Palmer collection for sale. The four plates are grey halftone reproductions of landscape paintings: a misty meadow with a grazing deer, an open field under a cloudy sky with a large tree, a rocky wooded ravine, and a birch grove on a bank. A designer could take from them soft tonal gradation, atmospheric haze, and simple composition built from a single tree or path.
