Gazette des beaux-arts

1859 · [Paris, s.n.] · 256 pictures

Gazette des beaux-arts was a Paris art review begun in 1859 and written for collectors, connoisseurs and artists, reproducing museum holdings, excavations and current exhibitions. Its plates are pen-and-ink and etched line work: broken marble fragments, drapery folds, sculptors' groups and heads, plus densely hatched etchings that give designers reusable line textures, carved ornament borders and antique figure studies.
