Die zanksüchtigen Kinder : mit 3 Kupfern
A German-language children's storybook titled Die zanksüchtigen Kinder, written by Mary Elliott and published in 1836 by A. Asher, with three copper-engraved plates in the manner of early nineteenth-century juvenile fiction. The pictures show genteel children and young women in pastoral gardens, with dense foliage, hollyhocks and lattice fencing rendered in fine, even line work that a designer could borrow for period botanical or garden motifs.
