Gallerie der Menschen nach alphabetischer Ordnung : Ein Bilderbuch für die Jugend zur Erweiterung ihrer Kenntnisse und Befriedigung ihrer Wißbegierde ; mit 36. illum. Kupfern
A late eighteenth-century German picture book of 36 hand-coloured copper engravings, published in 1799 by Leo and written by Erdmann Hannibal Albrecht for young readers, arranging figures of people in alphabetical order. The plates show costumed types side by side in plain outdoor settings, with clear outlines, flat washes of green, yellow and red, and careful differences in dress that a designer could use for period character studies.
