Gulliver's Reisen in unbekannte Länder : Für die reifere Jugend frei nach dem Englischen bearbeitet von Karl Seifert. Mit zahlreichen Bildern und Vignetten von Grandville [d.i. Jean Ignace-Isidore Gérard], [Carl] Offterdinger. etc.

Swift, Jonathan, Karl, Seifert, Grandville, Offterdinger, Carl · 1870 · Verlag von A. Kröner · 98 pictures

This is a German adaptation of Swift's Gulliver's Travels, rearranged by Karl Seifert for older young readers and published by A. Kröner in 1870, with illustrations after Grandville and Carl Offterdinger. The four pictures are small engraved scenes of courtly figures, a man beside a horse, a tiny-people crowd around a giant, and a figure wading through a garden, showing how Grandville's caricatured proportions and fine line work can inform satirical or playful scale contrasts.
