Almas Wäldchen : Lebensbild für Kinder von 6 bis 10 Jahren ; mit sechs illuminierten Kupfern
A German children's picture book of 1846 by Amalie von Gross, published by Baumgärtner's Buchhandlung for readers aged six to ten, with six hand-coloured copperplate engravings. The pages are rotated sideways in these scans, but the figures show a stroll in a park, a hunting scene, a soldier and a girl, and a figure seated on a bench by a fence. Designers could take from them the bold outlines, flat tinted colour and rural staging typical of early nineteenth-century German children's illustration.
