Graf Auget de Montyon, einer der edelsten Söhne Frankreichs : der Jugend und dem Volke erzählt ; mit 4 Abbildungen

Horn, W. O., von · 1850 · Julius Niedner Verlagsbuchhandlung · 4 pictures

A German biography of Jean-Baptiste Auget, Baron de Montyon, a French philanthropist, written by W. O. von Horn and published in 1850 by Julius Niedner in Germany for young readers and the general public. Its four engraved plates show a courtly scene of two men in periwigs beside a gilded mirror, a scholar at a desk among bookshelves, a crowd of children gathered at a doorway, and a formal portrait of a bewigged man in clerical bands, all rendered in restrained grey tones that suit period-costume references, interior detail studies, and historical portrait layouts.
