Jugend und Tugend der Kinder auf dem Schlosse Rosenthal : Zum Nachstreben für gute Kinder in Erzählungen geschildert ; Mit 6 ill. Kupfern

Müller, Heinrich, Straßberger, Ernst Wilhelm, Boettger, Gottlieb · 1836 · Verlag von Christian Conrad Krappe · 4 pictures

A German children's storybook of 1836 by Pastor Heinrich Müller, published by Christian Conrad Krappe, with six hand-coloured copper engravings by Ernst Wilhelm Straßberger and Gottlieb Boettger, meant as moral examples for good children. The pictures show a ruined Gothic archway with a hunter and a boy, a street fair with a lion on a cart and a camel, a horse-drawn carriage passing a heraldic eagle post, and a frontispiece of a stag and figures in a park. A designer might draw on their crisp, hand-tinted period palette and the dense, detailed scenes of costume and landscape.
