Bilder aus dem Jugendleben des Christkindleins : ein Bilderbuch für gute Kinder

Weiss, Karl · 1855 · Jungmann · 12 pictures

A German illustrated picture book of 1855 by Karl Weiss, published by Jungmann, offering moral scenes from the childhood of the Christ child for well-behaved children. The pictures are hand-coloured lithographs in soft pastel tones, each set in a framed vignette with ornamental scrollwork borders, showing domestic and pastoral scenes with gentle figures; a designer might take the decorative frame motifs and the muted, storybook palette.
