Studien zur Geschichte der holländischen Malerei
Wilhelm von Bode's 1883 scholarly study of Dutch painting, published in Braunschweig by F. Vieweg, aimed at art historians and collectors. The two pictures are close-up transcriptions of signatures and dates on paintings: Pietro Lastman's monogram with 1609 and Rembrandt's 'Rembrandt fecit 1627' in a flourished script, useful for designers wanting historic lettering, monogram and signature styles.
