Kleine Geschichten für die Kinderstube erzählt : Ein Hülfsbuch für Mütter und Erzieherinnen ; mit [7] ausgemalten Kupfern

Wilmsen, Friedrich Philipp · 1818 · Bei Carl Friedrich Amelang · 7 pictures

A German children's storybook of 1818 by Friedrich Philipp Wilmsen, published by Carl Friedrich Amelang, written as a helper for mothers and nursery educators and illustrated with seven hand-coloured copper engravings. The pictures show rural village scenes with thatched cottages, peasant families and children, rendered in soft washes of pink, blue and green with fine line detail. A designer might take their naive, gentle narrative staging and muted period palette for stories about home, farm life and childhood.
