Decorative Silhouettes of the Twenties: For Designers and Craftsmen (Dover Pictorial Archive)

These 84 silhouettes were reproduced from a collection of rare German die-cuts. They reflect traditional elements rooted in 18th century silhouettes as well as modernistic features that anticipate Art Deco styles. Subjects range from fashionable ladies to shepherdesses and include cherubs, animals, floral borders, party scenes, and other perennially popular motifs.
