Similde oder moralische, bildende und unterhaltende Erzählungen für Töchter von 6 bis 12 Jahren : mit illum. Kupfern
A German children's storybook of moral, educational and entertaining tales for girls aged six to twelve, written by Johann Heinrich Meynier and published by Amelang in 1822. The pictures are hand-coloured copperplate engravings of domestic scenes with women, girls and children in Empire-period dress, set in parlours, gardens and doorways. A designer might draw on their soft pastel palette, flat tinted outlines and the neat period interiors for vintage domestic or costume themes.
