Ein verödeter Park
A German plate from the Münchner Bilderbogen series, issued around 1881 and credited to Ferdinand Knab, showing six small views of a neglected park for a general popular audience. The pictures are monochrome engravings of overgrown garden ruins, tangled foliage, a classical pavilion and a boat on still water, offering a designer ready material for romantic decay, picturesque landscape vignettes and dense line-work foliage.
