Aus der Weihnachtszeit und aus dem Kinderleben : in Bildern und Reimen

Coester, Mathilde · 1874 · Braun & Schneider · 20 pictures

A German children's picture book of 1874 by Mathilde Coester, published by Braun & Schneider, presenting Christmas-season and everyday childhood scenes with rhyming German verses beneath each hand-coloured wood engraving. The pictures show interiors and gardens with two or three children at play and chores, rendered in small, tidy figures with clear outlines, offering a designer ideas for simple domestic vignettes, period costume, and framed text-and-image layouts.
