Zeitschrift des Deutschen Palästina-Vereins
This is a German periodical, the Zeitschrift des Deutschen Palästina-Vereins, issued in Leipzig in 1878 by the German Society for the Exploration of Palestine for scholars of antiquities and the Holy Land. Its pictures are measured architectural cross-sections, elevations and site plans drawn in fine black line with lettered reference points and hatched masonry, showing Jerusalem ruins and a new Russian church in Jerusalem. A designer could borrow the precise diagrammatic linework, hatching patterns and ornamental lettering framing these survey drawings.
