Kindersinn im Weltgetümmel : ein Unterhaltungsbuch für gemüthvolle Knaben und Mädchen ; mit illum. Abbildungen

Funk, Werner · 1838 · Druck u. Verlag von C. A. Eyraud · 5 pictures

A children's entertainment book titled Kindersinn im Weltgetümmel, published in 1838 by C. A. Eyraud, with text by Werner Funk, addressed to thoughtful boys and girls. Its hand-coloured prints show costumed scenes of everyday life: a horseback encounter under trees, a street gathering around a harpist, a shopkeeper serving a pair of figures in turbans, and men on a cliff toasting beside a ship. A designer might draw on the flat, bold colour washes and the crisp outlines of these period figures, with their dense foliage and layered crowds.
