Kinderlust : Erster Stoff zu Rede- und Gedächtniß-Uebungen für Kinder von 5-8 Jahren ; mit 9 colorirten Bildern

Schönke, Karl August · 1850 · Winckelmann und Söhne · 7 pictures

Kinderlust is an 1850 German picture book of first speech and memory exercises for children aged five to eight, written by Karl August Schönke and published by Winckelmann und Söhne with nine hand-coloured plates. The four plates shown are soft, slightly naive scenes of domestic and woodland life, with a boy and girl climbing a tree, a girl tending a lamb in a doorway, a girl sorting straw, and a young lord meeting a woodcutter, all drawn in gentle pencil-like lines with light watercolour washes that a designer could borrow for storybook palettes or vintage children's illustration.
