Globus; illustrierte Zeitschrift für Länder- und Völkerkunde
Globus was an illustrated German periodical of geography and ethnography, published in Braunschweig by F. Vieweg und Sohn in 1862 for a general readership interested in foreign lands and peoples. Its wood-engraved plates, printed sideways on the page, show street scenes, interiors and market stalls in eastern European and Middle Eastern towns, with dense crowds and hatched shading a designer could borrow for period texture.
