Erlebnisse eines Marienthalers : eine Erzählung für die liebe Jugend ; mit vier Farbendruckbildern
A German children's story published in 1886 by Franz Kirchheim, written by Paul Frankenberg for young readers and illustrated with four colour prints. The pictures show a boy visiting an elderly gentleman in an armchair, a group of children playing drums and trumpet indoors, a man in a feathered hat leading a line of boys through a wheat field toward a village, and an old man with a candle searching a dim room. Their bright chromolithograph palette, soft shading and tidy domestic settings suit designers looking for nineteenth-century storybook colour and costume.
