Ostereier für artige Kinder : lustige Ostergeschichten in Versen erzählt und mit Bildern geschmückt
An 1890 German Easter picture book of rhyming verse stories published by Meißner & Buch, made for well-behaved children. The oval pages each pair a hand-coloured scene with a block of German verse printed beneath it. The pictures show anthropomorphic rabbits and chicks in gentle domestic scenes, with soft watercolour washes, a designer might borrow their oval framing, pastel palette and storybook charm for seasonal illustration.
