Vier historische Erzählungen für die Jugend von 9-14 Jahren : <Mit 1 Titelkupfer>
An 1858 German book of four historical tales for young readers aged nine to fourteen, published by Carl Doebereiner and carrying a single frontispiece copperplate. The picture shows a seated man in a dim vaulted stone room, bent over a glowing alchemical-looking apparatus, while a hooded monk in a long robe watches from the right. Its heavy shadows, strong directional light and cramped interior perspective suggest dramatic chiaroscuro for a designer working on mystery or period scenes.
