"Schablonirte Decorations Malerein" Vol. I–II Folios by Oscar Schurth
Item Details
Description: A rare and ‘working’ archive of late 19th-century industrial design intended for professional decorators and vocational schools (Gewerbeschulen). The collection is notable for including both the Chromolithograph Plates (vibrant color guides for finished ceilings, friezes, and heraldic motifs like the double-headed eagle) and the accompanying ‘Schablonen’ (Stencil Sheets)—large, fold-out linear cartoons intended to be traced or cut for actual wall application.
