Gazette des beaux-arts
Gazette des beaux-arts was a French art review launched in Paris in 1859, written by critics and curators for collectors, dealers and connoisseurs. Its plates are wood engravings and etchings of museum and cabinet objects — grotesque-spouted ewers, lidded goblets, inlaid metal vases, arabesque-filled chargers and framed reliefs — rendered in fine hatching that supplies isolated ornament silhouettes and repeatable scroll borders.
