The Austrian Werkbund (probably together with the WIENER WERKSTÄTTE) published a high-quality portfolio wrapped in gold foil titled "Mode Wien 1914 / 15", a series of 12 booklets each containing 12 original prints, some of them hand-coloured, in a wide variety of techniques such as woodcut, etching and lithography on thin paper.
