1844 · Naumann · 15 pictures

Bilder und Reime is a German children's picture book published by Naumann in 1844, pairing small black-and-white woodcut-style scenes with rhymed verses printed beneath each one. The pictures show domestic and rural scenes of children at play, a harvest with fruit falling from a tree, a shepherd with sheep, and a family saying grace at table, with angels in some clouds. A designer could take from them the simple, rounded line work and the way a clear scene sits above a block of text on the page.
