Chromolithographie -- Histoire
Résumé / Abstract : This title traces the evolution of chromolithography from its tentative beginnings in the early 19th century to its dominant industrial position in the 50 years before World War I. The story ends with its gradual decline commercially and revival as an artistic medium in the mid-20th century. The book considers the process from a global standpoint and makes connections between developments in various European countries between Europe and the United States.
