Das Haustöchterchen : eine Erzählung für Mädchen von 10 bis 15 Jahren von Emma Biller <E[mma] Wuttke-Biller> ; Mit 4 Farbendruckbildern nach Aquarellen von C[arl] Offterdinger

Wuttke-Biller, Emma, Offterdinger, Carl · 1889 · Thienemann · 4 pictures

A German children's storybook of 1889 from the Thienemann publisher, written by Emma Wuttke-Biller for girls aged ten to fifteen and illustrated with four colour prints after watercolours by Carl Offterdinger. The four pictures show a family scene under a tree, girls fitting a dress, a couple beside a table of ceramic pots and dishes with gnomes, and a sleeping woman watched by forest spirits. A designer could take the warm chromolithographic palette, the rich period costume, and the mix of domestic and fairy-tale settings.
