Der Struwwelpeter oder lustige Geschichten und drollige Bilder für Kinder von 3 - 6 Jahren

Hoffmann, Heinrich · 1857 · Literarische Anstalt. (J. Rütten) · 10 pictures

Der Struwwelpeter is a German children's picture book written and illustrated by physician Heinrich Hoffmann and published by Rütten in 1857 for children aged three to six. The hand-coloured pages pair rhyming verse with cartoon-like scenes of misbehaving children, and a designer might take their bold flat colour blocks, simple outlines and deadpan humour as a model for playful editorial illustration.
