Der kleine Lustgarten, oder: belehrende und erheiternde Erzählungen für die liebe Jugend beiderlei Geschlechts von 8 bis 10 Jahren : Von Amalia Schoppe geb. Weise. Mit illuminirten Kupfern

Schoppe, Amalie, Wolf, Ludwig · 1830 · Verlag der Buchhandlung von Carl Friedrich Amelang · 6 pictures

Der kleine Lustgarten is an 1830 German children's storybook for readers aged eight to ten, written by Amalie Schoppe and published in Berlin by Amelang, with hand-coloured copper engravings after designs by Ludwig Wolf. The four pictures are small vignettes with leafy, oval borders showing scenes of a walk, a lyre-topped monument, a figure in a long coat pointing across a river, and a crowd at a vaulted doorway. A designer could take their loose, tree-framed vignette layout and soft hand-tinted palette for period narrative spot illustrations.
