Die sprechenden Blumen : zur Belohnung des Fleißes für die artige Jugend. Mit 12 colorirten Bildern
A German children's picture book of 1850, published by F. Fechner, with twelve hand-coloured plates in which young women are dressed as flowers, presented as a reward for diligent, well-behaved children. The plates show flower costumes built from petals, leaves and blossoms, with the flower names printed beneath, so a designer can borrow the botanical dress motif, the hand-coloured stippled look and the pastel palette.
