History of ancient, early Christian, and mediaeval painting
An English-language survey of ancient, early Christian, and medieval painting by German art historians Alfred Woltmann and Karl Woermann, issued in New York by Dodd, Mead in 1906 for students and general readers. Wood-engraved plates reproduce altarpieces, frescoes, and panels in dense crosshatching: enthroned Madonnas under coffered vaults, kneeling donors, columned niches and haloed saints, useful for figure groups, architectural framing, and tonal texture.
