Von Sonne, Mond und Sternen : in Bildern und Versen

Wenger, Lisa · 1907 · Weise · 16 pictures

A German children's picture book of verse and illustration by Lisa Wenger, published by Weise in 1907, themed on the sun, moon and stars. The four pictures show a starry-cloaked woman with a gold train, a girl in red playing a harp on a crescent moon, a girl in a white bonnet raising red-tinted hands before a red sun, and a red-haired figure streaking across a dark sky above a village. A designer could draw on their flat, limited palettes of yellow, red and dark green-blue, and on the stylised starfields and crescent shapes.
