Kurze Geschichten für kleine Leute : Buntes Allerlei für Knaben und Mädchen im Alter von 8-10 Jahren ; mit 3 Buntdruckbildern
A late-nineteenth-century German children's storybook of short tales, published in 1880 by A. Weichert and written by Andrea H. Fogowitz for readers aged eight to ten. Its pictures are three-colour chromolithographs with bordered panels, a cover scene of two children reading in a garden, a knight fighting a lion in a jungle, an angel offering a cup to a kneeling figure beneath a palm, and a snowy village scene of a boy receiving alms from an old woman. A designer might borrow the framed, jewel-coloured Victorian chromolithograph style, its ornate blackletter lettering, and its dense, gently moralising narrative scenes.
