A German translation from Danish of a 1771 dyeing manual by Sörens Abildgaard, printed in Copenhagen, offering short instructions for coloring wool, silk and linen plus recipes for inks and stain removal. The two pictures are small rococo-style woodcut ornaments: a flower-filled urn set among scrolls and foliage, and a flower vase framed by curling acanthus-like scrollwork, useful as decorative tailpieces or frame motifs.
