Veronika vom Berge : eine Geschichte aus dem letzten Jahrzehnt des Dreißigjährigen Krieges ; mit 2 Bildern

Salzmann, Marianne · 1897 · Friedrich Andreas Perthes · 4 pictures

A German juvenile historical novel by Marianne Salzmann, published in 1897 by Friedrich Andreas Perthes, set in the last decade of the Thirty Years' War and aimed at young readers. Its two engraved plates show a forest scene of a boy and girl and a group of soldiers confronting a seated woman with a child near a village; a designer could draw on the sparse, hatched black-and-white woodland and period costume detail, while the repeating oak-leaf endpaper pattern in tan and taupe suggests a vintage botanical motif.
