Auf dem Lande. : Ein Bilderbuch
A colour picture book from 1890 by Lothar Meggendorfer, published in Munich by Braun & Schneider, aimed at young children and presenting country life in rhyming verse under each scene. The pictures show a donkey led by a boy in a white smock, a horse-drawn plough and a hand cart on a village path, flat-coloured with bold outlines and simple backgrounds that a designer could borrow for naive, storybook-style layouts.
