Globus; illustrierte Zeitschrift für Länder- und Völkerkunde
Globus was an illustrated German periodical of geography and ethnology, published in Braunschweig by F. Vieweg und Sohn from 1862 for a general readership interested in lands and peoples. Its pictures are black-and-white wood engravings of wide landscapes: a flat steppe with a lone traveller on a track, a valley of terraced hillside settlement, a snowfield with jagged peaks, and a log cabin under a split-plank roof, offering designers strong horizon compositions and rustic architectural detail.
