Haustiere
An 1835 German plate titled Haustiere, a sheet of hand-coloured lithographs of domestic animals gathered for a natural history or farm reference, with no named maker in the record. The picture grid shows twelve small vignettes of cattle, sheep, goats, horses, donkeys, dogs and cats, each on a soft green ground, offering a designer a clear catalogue of animal poses and breed silhouettes for rural or pastoral motifs.
