Gunther, Ernst (ed.)
The constant demand by graphic artists for classic designs assures a warm reception for this collection of 800 beautiful engraved motifs from an extremely rare mid-nineteenth-century work. Scores of handsome images depict ornate frames, elaborate scrollwork, and many other beautifully embellished designs. Comprising 142 plates organized into four sections, the volume opens with lavish ornaments, featuring flowers, mythological creatures, and other fanciful decorations, all beautifully rendered in meticulous detail. Striking designs incorporating classical columns appear in part two, while part three's rich selection of heraldic designs-shields, coats-of-arms, seals, and insignias from Austria, Russia, Denmark, France, and many other countries-offer a touch of medieval flair or aristocratic ambience. The fourth and final part consists of charming calligraphic alphabets in a variety of styles, from plain to majestic. An invaluable source of inspiration and a treasury of designs for permission-free use, these attractive motifs are ideal for enhancing such print projects as brochures, newsletters, posters, signs, catalog copy, and many more. Unabridged republication of Kleines 0marnentenbuch .... as published by Verlag Ernst Gunther ca., 1843. 144pp. 8 1/8" x 11", January 1999, Paperbd.
