King ~ Signed-Binding ~ Jugendstil ~ Glasgow School ~ Art Nouveau ~ Photographs of Masterpiece Paintings ~ Fine Art An album of photographs of Old Master paintings in the collection of the Royal Museum in Berlin. The cover design is described by Colin White as one of “the most splendid covers that J. M. King ever devised” and the subject is a prototype “of all the forlorn princesses that Jessie was ever to draw. Their faces, usually in profile or three-quarter view, were not always beautiful . . . Jessie’s princesses were attractive because they looked ingenuous and helpless, rather than arrogant in their beauty.” King’s signature using a ‘y’ at the end of her first name is likely the only instance that appears on her book covers.
