Jan of the windmill. A story of the plains
Jan of the Windmill is a children's story by Juliana Horatia Ewing, published in London by G. Bell & Sons in 1890 for young readers. The four wood-engraved pictures show a seated man and a young boy in a cottage interior, a woman with a child in a fur-trimmed cloak, a schoolroom of children with a clock on the wall, and two children talking beneath trees. Their clean hatched linework and domestic interiors suit designers wanting period rural scenes with restrained, readable detail.
