Vom Kinde Jesu is a German illustrated book of stories and legends for young readers, published in 1863 by Gebrüder Scheitlin with pictures by Leopold Itzel and text by Katharina Diez. The hand-coloured plates show New Testament and nativity scenes in arched or ivy-framed borders, with soft watercolour-like tints and ornate scrollwork that a designer could borrow for period frames and borders.
