Brüderchen und Schwesterchen
Brüderchen und Schwesterchen is a German picture book of the Grimm fairy tale, illustrated by Otto Speckter and published in 1857 for children. The hand-coloured panels form a sequential picture story, with four scenes in each strip, and the pictures show a forest, a fountain, and a deer and a castle setting. A designer could take from them the cadence of a narrative strip, with simple figures, clear silhouettes, and bright flat colour arranged in a row.
