Johannes KRAMERDas Moderne Heim: Eine Sammlung Malerischer Gesammtansichten, Ecken, Erkerabschlüsse, sowie Einzelner Möbel für Salons, Speisezimmer, Herrenzimmer, Schlafzimmer und Entrees nebst den Wichtigsten Details.

Berlin, Verlag von Kanter & Mohr, n.d. (circa 1895/1900).

Large oblong folio, loose as issued in publisher’s blue cloth portfolio with ties (missing one tie), illustrated endpapers. Title-page and 80 fine numbered plates, of which many coloured. Complete.

First and only edition.

Impressive large-format “trade catalogue” of a furniture designer at the turn of the last century showing individual pieces of furniture or home interiors incorporating the furniture, some plates with measured drawings.

The fine plates show the influence of Eclecticism and the early Art Nouveau style.

Uncommon.

A very good copy.
