Die Unterhaltung der Mädchen : Enthält: Erzählungen, Gedichte, Fabeln, Räthsel und Lieder ; mit 4 illum. Kupfern
A children's miscellany for girls, published in 1831 by Bauer und Raspe and compiled by Johann Carl Porsch and J. Wolf, containing stories, poems, fables, riddles and songs with four hand-coloured copper engravings. The single picture shows a seated woman in a green-and-gold dress and a standing woman holding a baby while a man in a dark green coat leans toward a cradle-side scene in a richly panelled interior, captioned 'Das Ringelspiel'. A designer might take its warm, muted hand-coloured palette, the tight domestic staging and the decorative wall panelling as period reference.
