Das Himmelreich unter den Kindern oder 25 Erzählungen von einer Kindererweckung in Pommern

1843 · Verlag der Rettungs-Anstalt · 16 pictures

A German Protestant children's book of 1843, published by a rescue institution's press, retelling twenty-five stories of a religious revival among children in Pomerania. Its pictures are small black-and-white woodcuts, some framed with numbered captions, showing scenes of quarrelling boys, a violent assault, a prodigal's return, and Christ blessing children, useful to a designer for compact, expressive figure groupings and period devotional imagery.
