Kinder-Lieder : Von Clementine Helm [d.i. Clementine Beyrich.] Mit Illustrationen von A[ugust] von Heydon

Helm, Clementine, August von, Heydon · 1861 · Georg Wigand · 23 pictures

A children's songbook of verses by Clementine Helm (Clementine Beyrich), illustrated by August von Heydon and published by Georg Wigand in 1861, probably in Germany, for young readers at home. Its wood-engraved pages pair a framed German verse with small scenes of two or three children playing, embracing or talking, set among ornamental borders, flowers and foliage, offering a designer clear models for decorative initials, vignette framing and tender domestic group poses in period black-and-white line work.
