Hausthiere : Bilderbuch zum Nachzeichnen u. Nachmalen
A German picture book of farm animals, published by Arnz in 1840 as a drawing and painting model book for children. Its hand-coloured pictures show a rooster, a goat, a cow and geese in simple rural settings, with plain outlines and flat colour. A designer could take from them the clear, economical way of drawing livestock in naive period colour.
