The Wallace collection and the Tate gallery
Estelle Ross's 1908 London guide to the Wallace Collection and Tate Gallery, published by W. Gardner, Darton for general gallery visitors and young readers. Halftone plates reproduce oil paintings in deep, murky tonal range: a nobleman with a hound, a curly-haired child in a plumed hat, portrait heads emerging from near-black grounds, useful for shadowed vignettes and moody portrait crops.
