Das Kreuz und die Taube : eine Erzählung für die christliche Jugend ; mit einem Titelbilde
A children's religious tale published in 1838 by the Kollmann bookshop, written by Johann Baptist Klar for Christian young readers, with one frontispiece engraving. The plate shows a boy standing beside a seated older woman in a white cap and apron, both clasping hands on a grassy bank beneath a wooden cross on a hill, with a village and church spire in the distance. A designer might take its soft tonal shading, open rural landscape, and gentle domestic pose as a model for quiet, devotional scenes.
