ABC und Bilderbuch : nebst einer Anweisung Kinder leicht lesen zu lehren
An 1801 German alphabet and picture book by Johann Andreas Christian Löhr, published by Fleischer, meant to teach children to read. The hand-coloured copperplate scenes show rural and town life, with farm women and sheep, a bear and a bow-carrying man, cattle and a donkey, and a child with geese at a pond. A designer might draw on their clear, tidy compositions and the bright flat colour used to make everyday subjects legible to young readers.
