Weichers Kunstbücher: Die Meisterbilder von Lotto

Lotto, Lorenzo · 1909 · 62 pictures

A 1909 German art book from the Weichers Kunstbücher series, reproducing paintings by Lorenzo Lotto in black-and-white halftone plates, held by Heidelberg University Library and aimed at art students and general readers of painting. The plates are reproduced sideways in places and show Renaissance altarpieces and devotional scenes, with Madonnas, infants, saints, angels and crowded figures in dark settings that suggest chiaroscuro modelling for designers studying composition and tonal contrast.
