Pankraz Tobler : oder über Leben, Gesundheit, Krankheit, Alter und Sterben
A Swiss German moral and instructional tale by Peter Scheitlin, published in 1842 by Verlag von Scheitlin und Zollikofer, aimed at readers learning about life, health, illness, old age and death. The single hand-coloured plate shows an interior with a seated man gesturing at a table while two elderly men with walking sticks stand by a tiled stove and wall pictures, rendered in soft washed colour with fine ink outlines that a designer could draw on for quiet domestic genre scenes.
