Vienna, Gerlach & Schenk, n.d. [1890].
Munich painter Anton Seder (1850-1916), was the first director of the Ecole Supérieure des Arts Décoratifs, founded in 1890, where he served for many years. Strasbourg had been ceded by France to Germany in 1871 and was returned to France in 1918; therefore, the cultural environment was a mixture of French and German influences. Seder co-edited the magazine Das Kunstgewerbe in Elsass-Lothringen (The Arts and Crafts in Alsace-Lorraine). His designs were also included in many periodicals of decorative arts designs, issued as chromolithographs.
2 volumes folio (55 x 39 cm), 3 colour titles, register of plates and 196 lithograph plates of which 113 are in colour (some heightened with gold and silver) by Johann Haupt, Anton Hartinger, J. Lowy, Friedrich Jasper, Eduard Sieger, E. Beck, after designs by Anton Seder, original cloth-backed printed boards portfolios, original ties, a very good, clean set.
