Die Geschichten der Bibel zum Gebrauch für Lehrer und Schüler : mit 1 Kupfer
A German Bible story primer of 1824 by Johann Andreas Christian Löhr, published by Fleischer for teachers and pupils, with a single copper-engraved plate. The oval engraving shows Christ seated on a stone bench blessing children who gather around him, under a drooping tree with a soft radiant light, and the German caption below quotes his words to let the children come to him. A designer could take the oval vignette framing, the gentle sepia-toned line engraving, and the grouping of figures around a central seated figure as a model for devotional or educational spot illustration.
