Licht und Schatten in dem Leben guter Menschen : Mit 4 colorirten Kupfern
Licht und Schatten in dem Leben guter Menschen is a German illustrated storybook of 1842, published by Christian Conrad Krappe, with four hand-coloured copper engravings by Förtsch, Lyser, Böttger and Böhme for a general reading public. The pictures are small, hand-tinted genre scenes of walking travellers, garden gatherings, and a wedding among flowers, drawn in a naive, sentimental manner with soft greens, reds and blues that suggest gentle period palettes and storybook staging.
