Reue versöhnt : eine Erzählung ; mit 4 Bildern
A German-language narrative book, Reue versöhnt, by Franz Hoffmann, published in 1855 by Schmidt & Spring, with four framed engravings in ornate scrollwork borders for young readers. The pictures show domestic scenes of tense confrontation, a candlelit dinner table, and a figure kneeling beside a child in a crowded street, rendered in fine black-line engraving that a designer could study for dense hatching, rococo-style frames, and theatrical staging of gesture.
