Ludwig Bechsteins Märchenbuch : mit 5 Farbendruckbildern
A German fairy-tale collection by Ludwig Bechstein, published in 1891 by Verlag von H. Liebau with five colour printed plates, aimed at children. The two pictures are chromolithographs in flat, saturated colour with bold outlines and rounded, caricatured figures. A designer could draw on their hand-coloured folk-tale look, with its strong contrast of red, blue and ochre against plain interiors.
