Neuestes unzerreißbares Thierbilderbuch für das kleine Volk
A German children's picture book of farm and domestic animals, published by Rob. Friese in 1879 for young readers. The hand-coloured engravings show cattle resting in a meadow, a flock of sheep with a lamb, pigs by a trough, and goats on a rocky alpine slope, each framed on a cream ground. A designer could take the simple, gently tinted naturalistic style and the uncluttered framing of each animal group for vintage nursery or farm illustration.
