Schweizerischer Jugend-Almanach : ein Album schweizerischer Jugendschriftsteller
This is a Swiss children's almanac of 1853, compiled by Carl Gutmann and published in Germany by Carl Gutknecht as an album of Swiss juvenile writers' stories. The pictures are black-and-white engravings of domestic interiors, a mother with a child, a ruined stone archway with a hidden treasure scene, and a rustic outdoor scene with a man and sheep, giving a designer models of quiet, sentimental 19th-century storytelling compositions with strong framing and tonal shading.
