Das eitle Entlein
A German picture sheet from 1881 titled Das eitle Entlein, made by Emil Reinicke and published in Munich by the Münchener Bilderbogen series for children. Its twelve small framed scenes tell the vain duckling's story in sequence, with each caption set beneath its image; a designer could borrow the compact panel layout and the way a single narrative is broken into many small vignettes.
