Zeichnungs-Vorlagen
A German drawing-copy book of 1855 by Ernst Fröhlich and Nikolaus Knilling, published in Munich as models for students learning to draw, with subjects of architecture. This plate shows top panels of simple geometric blocks and wooden construction forms, and lower panels of thatched cottages and farm buildings drawn in pencil-like line and light hatching. A designer might take from it the economical contour line and the way picturesque rural buildings are reduced to a few strokes.
