A woman gleans the leftovers from a harvested field. The volume Le Pictorialisme En France by Michel Poivert lists the artist Jacques Schneider, an amateur, as having been active between 1905-1913, and exhibiting in the Photo Club de Paris Salons of 1905, 1906, 1909, 1913. (p. 101)

-1906 was the first year Die Kunst in der Photographie editor and publisher Franz Goerke employed  Berlin graphic arts printer Alfred Ruckenbrod in producing photogravure plates for the journal. Unlike the majority of the Chine-collé photogravure plates printed on heavier plate papers appearing between 1897-1905, the Ruckenbrod atelier used thinner, watermarked, hand-made laid paper for the journal photogravure plates. As Rolf H. Krauss has pointed out previously in his fine 1986 overview of the journal for The History of Photography, (Die kunst in der photographie, the German camera work) (Vol. 10, pp. 265–297) the switch to using Ruckenbrod to produce the plates was most likely a cost decision to lower production expenses.
