Neujahrsgeschenk zum Nuzen und Vergnügen für Kinder und Kinderfreunde, auf das Jahr 1791
A German New Year's gift book of 1791, published by Johann Frickhardt for children and their friends, offering instruction and amusement. The single engraved plate shows a standing man in a long coat and a small boy in a waistcoat facing each other in an interior with an open door, a table and a window with a curtain, drawn in fine etched lines with a restrained, documentary tone that suits designers looking for period domestic scenes and eighteenth-century costume.
