Nordbilder aus Reisemappen von Nordpolfahrern; für die Jugend gesammelt : Mit 16 illuminirten Kupfern
An 1833 German picture book published by Fleischer, gathering scenes from Arctic expedition travel journals for young readers, with sixteen hand-coloured copper engravings. The four plates show sailors and ships in polar ice, a smoky fire inside a hut, and figures climbing rocks beside a moored vessel. A designer might take from them the economical hand-colour washes over fine line hatching, and the way small figures are set against vast icy landscapes.
