Sensations
Sensations is a 1927 art book by Émile Verhaeren, published in Paris by G. Crès & cie and held by the Getty Research Institute. Its plates are reproductions of paintings, shown as sideways-rotated black-and-white photographs with captions, plus a small circular woodcut vignette of a figure in a knitted high-collared jersey. A designer might take from them the tight circular roundel framing a bust portrait, and the dramatic diagonal crucifixion composition with a dark ground and pale figures.
