Zweymal zwey und fünfzig biblische Geschichten für Schulen und Familien : mit Abbildungen

1836 · bei J. L. Federhaff dem Aelt · 110 pictures

A German illustrated Bible story primer of 1836, published by J. L. Federhaff the Elder for use in schools and families, with small woodcut scenes from the Old Testament. The pictures are crude, crowded black-and-white cuts with heavy hatching, and a designer might take their compact vignette framing and simple gestural staging of figures as a model for narrative inset panels.
