Der Lohn einer guten That : eine Geschichte aus Indiens neuesten Ereignissen, dem Volke und der Jugend erzählt ; mit 4 Abbildungen
A German children's book from 1858, written by W. O. von Horn and published by Verlag von Kreidel und Niedner, telling a story of recent events in India for a young readership. Its three engraved plates, drawn in fine hatched line on cream paper, show a seated woman under a great tree with figures around her, a dark-coated man in a doorway beside a sleeping young woman under climbing vines, and a woman holding two torches in dense jungle foliage. A designer could draw on the layered tree and foliage framing, the vignette-style plate borders, and the restrained tonal palette of brown ink on paper.
