Rundgemälde : neue Reisebilder, Natur- und Völkergemälde aus allen Erdtheilen
An 1861 German illustrated travel anthology published in Zurich by the Grubenmann bookshop, compiled by J. G. Fels and Theodor Rothbart as a popular picture book of world travel and peoples for a general readership. Its hand-coloured plates show Constantinople street scenes, an Algerian lion hunt, a Xhosa chief's homestead and a Comanche horseman, with one plate captioned under the image. A designer might take from them the loose, sketchy hand-tinted lithograph look and the dramatic compositions of riders, animals and crowds set against landscape.
