Der Kinder Lieblings-Märchen : mit vier Buntdruckbildern
A German children's fairy-tale collection published in 1887 by Verlag von H. Liebau, compiled by Auguste Wewerski, with four colour lithographic plates for young readers. The three pictures are bright, flat-coloured scenes: a costumed youth before a throned king, a boy in nightshirt beside a rocking horse, and a red-clad youth facing a sea monster with merfolk above. A designer could take the saturated palette, bold outlines and staged poses typical of nineteenth-century storybook chromolithography.
