Florence
A pocket guide to Florence in Grant Allen's Historical Guides series, reissued in 1911 by Holt in New York and Grant Richards in London for English-speaking travellers touring Italian art. The plates are coarse-screen halftones after Anderson and Alinari photographs, cropping Renaissance frescoes, panel paintings and marble reliefs down to single heads and hands, useful for soft grey tonal grounds, profile studies and detail crops of drapery and hair.
