Schliessmann-Album
Schliessmann-Album is a German-language humour album of caricatures and cartoons by the Viennese artist Hans Schliessmann, published in Vienna by R. v. Waldheim in 1889. The pictures are loose pen-and-ink sketches of everyday social scenes, with bold hatching, crowded interiors and figures in top hats and frock coats. A designer could take its economical line work, comic gesture and dense cross-hatched shading as models for editorial illustration.
