Kleines Taschenbuch für die helvetische Jugend
A small pocket book for Swiss youth, published in 1799 by an unidentified publisher, held by the Swiss Institute for Children's and Youth Media. Its circular copperplate-style vignettes show French-captioned scenes of crowds and a tyrant, a hunting or fable scene, and small Swiss views near Soleure, including a pilgrimage chapel and a church with a cross. A designer might take the compact round framing, the tidy engraved line work, and the captions set beneath each oval image.
