Geschichte von den drei Schwänen für die liebe Jugend : mit schönen Bilder
A hand-coloured children's picture book printed in German in 1835 by Oehmigke & Riemschneider, telling the tale of three swans for young readers through framed scenes with verse captions in blackletter type. The pictures are naive, flat and warmly coloured, with simple landscapes of lakes, trees and cottages, offering a designer a model of rustic storytelling layouts, stacked comic-strip panels and bold outlined figures.
