Kindestreu : ein Kranz von Erzählungen, als Geschenk für heranwachsende Mädchen gebildeter Eltern
Kindestreu is a German-language collection of stories published in 1841 by J.J. Christen, written by Eugénie Foa and J.J. Kern, and offered as a gift for growing girls from educated families. Its four engravings are small, quiet scenes of street crowds, a uniformed officer among onlookers, a woman seated beneath a tree with children, and an interior with a girl and a woman by a chair, drawn in fine stippled tone that suggests tidy, sentimental narrative for designers seeking period domestic and street staging.
