Catalogue of the pictures, drawings, etchings and objects of art
A 1910 collection catalogue of the Museum Mesdag in The Hague, printed by Mouton, listing the paintings, drawings, etchings and art objects gathered by Hendrik Willem Mesdag for museum visitors and collectors. The plates are small halftone reproductions of Barbizon and Hague School works — a dark cottage interior, a low village silhouetted against a wide sky, figures under trees, a river at dusk — offering soft grey tonal masses, horizon-heavy compositions, and set-in artist captions with plate numbers.
