ABC-Buch für kleine und große Kinder : gezeichnet von Dresdner Künstlern

Reinick, Robert, Hiller, Ferdinand, von · 1854 · Verlag von Bernhard Schlicke · 27 pictures

ABC-Buch für kleine und große Kinder is an 1854 German alphabet primer for children, drawn by Dresden artists Robert Reinick and Ferdinand von Hiller and published by Bernhard Schlicke. Each letter gets a framed scene of rural domestic life, with a large capital letter in a panel beside it and a decorative banner below naming a German word; the engravings are plain line work with crisp figures, simple landscapes and ornamental borders that a designer could use for period children's book layouts, letter-led typography or framed vignettes.
