Robert Rothbrust's Heirath mit Zaunkönigs Tochter Hannchen : Ein drolliges Bilderbuch
A hand-coloured German picture book of about 1830, a humorous rhymed tale of birds, with publisher unknown, made for children. Its four scenes show birds in a wedding story set in a painted landscape, with the verse printed in a block beneath each image. A designer could take from it the flat, naive colour, the bold outlines and the way the rhyming text sits under a framed vignette.
