Der Mulatte : eine Geschichte aus dem Pflanzerleben in Florida der Jugend und dem Volk erzählt ; mit 4 Abbildungen

Horn, W. O., von · 1859 · Verlag von Kreidel und Niedner · 4 pictures

Der Mulatte is an 1859 German youth and popular storybook by W. O. von Horn, published by Verlag von Kreidel und Niedner, telling a tale of plantation life in Florida. The four engraved plates show a European-dressed man and a feathered companion walking through a riverside landscape, a struggle in tall grass, a group tending a fallen figure beneath trees, and a rider on horseback near a plantation building. Designers might draw on their tonal hatching, strong diagonals of grass and foliage, and the contrast of dark figures against pale ground.
