Die Fliege

Busch, Wilhelm · 1865 · 1 picture

Die Fliege is a German picture-story sheet by Wilhelm Busch, printed in 1865 and issued for a general German readership as one of his Münchener Bilderbogen. The page arranges a grid of small vignettes in which a stout figure hunts a housefly through a room, with the captions in German beneath the sequence. Its strongest use for a designer is the sequential layout: a dozen framed roundels read in rows, each showing one stage of a comic chase with clear poses and gestures.
