Mit über 600 colorirten Abbildungen
A German illustrated book of natural history and country life, compiled by Carl F. Lauckhard and published by Günther, with over 600 colored plates for a general readership. The pictures are small black-and-white decorated initial letters framed in foliage and vines, plus a hand-colored plate of farm labor, a horse-drawn carriage, and small rodents, which a designer could draw on for ornamental capitals, botanical border motifs, and rustic scene vignettes.
