Ländlich sittlich : 12 lustige Bilder
Ländlich sittlich is an 1873 German picture book of twelve comic images, published by Weise and credited to Paul Rüthling and Paul Konewka, aimed at a general German readership. Its four silhouettes show rustic peasant figures, a donkey, a dog and a calf in flat black cutouts on a tan ground, so a designer might borrow the strong figure-ground contrast and the gestural poses of silhouette storytelling.
