Militärisches Bilderbuch für Knaben : in Farbendruck ; nebst kindlichen Reimen

Voltz, Johann Michael · 1869 · Schreiber · 11 pictures

A German colour-printed picture book of military scenes for boys, drawn by Johann Michael Voltz and published by Schreiber in 1869, with childlike rhymes alongside. Its hand-coloured plates show soldiers in combat, drilling recruits and riding at the riding school, with a loose, narrative quality a designer might borrow for period uniform palettes, stacked two-panel layouts and short captioned vignettes.
