=Ornament=: Lehner, J., &c. Neue Dekorations-Malereien im modernen Stil. [1904]
No further references are needed beyond those already given to the first of these three books. It would be literally correct but none the less pedantic to convert the "&c." of the above entry to "u.s.w." (und so weiter), as
The entries of the first and third of these books would be marked for the classified catalogue 745 (Art. Ornamental Design), and the second 729.4 (Art. Architectural Design and Decoration. Painted Decoration), the index-entries being
Séguy, E. Les fleurs décoratives, 745 Ornament, 745 Floral Ornament, 745 Decoration, Ornamental, 745 Rémon, G. Peintre décorative, 729.4 House Decoration, 729.4 Decoration, House, 729.4 Lehner u. Mader. Dekorations-Malereien, 745
The foregoing suggestion for the translation of title-pages, where the text of the book is nonexistent or immaterial, is also applicable in the case of music, more especially instrumental music, as many persons understand music without understanding continental languages, and therefore to give a translation of the title-pages of musical works (not works _upon_ music, which is a different matter) in a catalogue may serve a most useful purpose. Take these as examples:--
BEETHOVEN, Ludwig van. Sämmtliche Sinfonien für das Pianoforte zu zwei und vier Händen; arrangirt von F. W. Markull. No. 8-9, vierhandig. 4º _Wolfenbüttel_, n.d. JADASSOHN, S. Sechs Clavierstücke. 4º _Leipzig_, n.d. LECLAIR, Jean M. Le tombeau: sonate à violon avec la basse continue; arrangée pour le violon avec accompagnement de piano par Gustav Jensen. 4º n.d.
There is no great reason why these and similar works should not be usefully adapted for the catalogues of popular libraries at any rate, as
BEETHOVEN, Ludwig van. Collected pianoforte symphonies; arranged by F. W. Markull. Nos. 8-9, Piano duet. 4º _Wolfenbüttel_, n.d. JADASSOHN, S. Six pianoforte pieces. 4º _Leipzig_, n.d. LECLAIR, Jean M. Le tombeau: sonata, with continued thorough-bass; arranged for the violin, with piano accompaniment by Gustav Jensen. 4º n.d.
As "Le tombeau" is the distinctive title of this particular piece, it is as well to give it in the original form, or, if in translation, as "Le tombeau (The tomb)." It should be unnecessary to add that, where space is of no consideration, the above titles can be given in the original with the translation following enclosed within brackets; to do this would conform with literal accuracy.
