Italian masters in German galleries. A critical essay on the Italian pictures in the galleries of Munich, Dresden, Berlin;
Giovanni Morelli's critical study of Italian paintings in the Munich, Dresden and Berlin galleries, translated by Luise Richter and published in London by G. Bell and Sons in 1883 for connoisseurs and museum students. The plates are Morelli's attribution diagrams — outline tracings of hands, fingers and ears copied from named painters, alongside sparse contour sketches of Madonna and Child groups — offering designers isolated anatomical line studies and a clean diagrammatic drawing style set against tinted paper.
