Der große Struwwelpeter : ein Bilderbuch für Kinder von 17 bis 77 Jahren

Baux, Julien Raymond, de, Steinla, Moritz · Verlag von Otto Janke · 27 pictures

This is a German comic picture book, Der große Struwwelpeter, a rhymed moral tale for children from 17 to 77 years old, published by Verlag von Otto Janke, with illustrations by Moritz Steinla after Heinrich Hoffmann's original verses. The pictures are small engravings, many rotated on the page, showing exaggerated, caricatured figures in interiors and streets. A designer might take their loose, sketchy hatching and expressive grotesque faces as a model for satirical characters and comic panels.
