Die Negerin in Guayana : eine Geschichte aus dem nördlichen Südamerika ; der gesammten edleren Lesewelt, besonders aber der reiferen Jugend erzählt

Bauberger, Wilhelm, Leudner, Joseph · 1849 · Verlag von Georg Joseph Manz · 1 picture

Die Negerin in Guayana is an 1849 German adventure story by Wilhelm Bauberger and Joseph Leudner, published in Regensburg by Georg Joseph Manz for educated general readers and older young people. The single engraved plate shows a Dutch-era colonial scene: a seated woman in dark cloak pressing a child's head against her, a shackled man in a white shirt flanked by two armed men in plumed hats, all set beneath palms and a distant hill. A designer might take its tight grouping of figures, dramatic diagonal spears, and the strong tonal contrast of pale and dark clothing against a soft landscape.
