Ländliche Kinderspiele
Ländliche Kinderspiele is a German picture book of 1833 showing rural children's games, likely made for young readers in German-speaking lands. Its two hand-coloured scenes show children playing in open green countryside and before village houses with a church spire. A designer could take the loose, lively grouping of figures, the flat naive colouring, and the sketchy outdoor setting for folk-inspired scenes.
