Münchener Bilderbogen 42: [Nro 985-1008]

1008 · Braun & Schneider · 15 pictures

This is a Münchener Bilderbogen, a sheet of German wood-engraved picture panels published by Braun & Schneider in Munich in the nineteenth century, aimed at families and children. The sheets group many small scenes per page, with rhyming captions printed beneath. The pictures show crowded genre scenes of costumed figures, country folk, and animals, with clear outlines and dense hatching a designer could borrow for vintage-style line illustration.
