Legenden von Rübezahl : mit Illustrationen
An 1880 German illustrated edition of Johann Karl August Musäus's Rübezahl legends, published by Verlag von H. Liebau, presenting folk tales of the Silesian mountain spirit to a general reader. The wood-engraved pictures are small, lively and comic in tone, with bold outlines, crosshatched shadow and rustic costume, useful to a designer seeking folkloric character types, woodland settings and expressive gesture in black-and-white line work.
