Bilder und Reime, Reime und Bilder für Kinder
A children's picture-and-rhyme book published by Naumann in 1846, with German verses printed beneath or beside each small engraved scene for young readers. Its pictures are simple pen-and-ink vignettes of children at play, working in a garden, gathering flowers, and rowing a boat, with the text set in blackletter type. A designer might take their loose, sketchy line work, the framed arched vignettes, and the quiet, domestic storytelling for pastoral or nostalgic illustration.
