Bilder aus der Thierwelt in Liedern für unsre Kinder
Bilder aus der Thierwelt in Liedern für unsre Kinder is a German children's picture book of animals, compiled by Wilhelm Friedrich Besser and published by Hasselberg in 1838 to accompany songs. The hand-coloured plates show paired animals on pale paper with a few loose strokes of grass and rock. A designer could take the simple stacked vignettes and soft watercolour washes as a model for naive, storybook-style spot illustration.
