Globus; illustrierte Zeitschrift für Länder- und Völkerkunde
Globus was an illustrated German periodical of geography and ethnography, published in Braunschweig in 1862 by Vieweg and Sohn for a general readership interested in foreign lands and peoples. Its pages carry wood-engraved scenes of travel, townscapes, and local dress, several rotated on the page, and a designer could draw on their crowded street compositions, costume detail, and architectural views of mosques, domes and colonnaded buildings for period-flavoured narrative scenes.
