The lighting book; a manual for the layman, setting forth the practical and esthetic sides of good lighting for the home
A 1913 practical manual by F. Laurent Godinez, published in New York by McBride, Nast & Company, advising householders on electric and gas lighting for domestic rooms. The halftone photographs show darkened interiors lit by single shaded lamps, piano lights and hanging globes, offering high-contrast studies of glow against black, silhouetted furniture, and pooled light for moody or nocturnal compositions.
