Bilder und Sprüche für kleine Kinder

Viktor, Duz · 1858 · Scheitlin · 7 pictures

Bilder und Sprüche für kleine Kinder is a hand-coloured German picture book for young children, made by the artist Viktor with verses by Duz, published by Scheitlin in 1858. Each page pairs a small coloured scene of family life, shepherding and woodland play with a rhyming German verse set beneath it. Its clear, unshaded figures and flat rustic settings offer a designer a simple, folksy vocabulary of domestic costume and countryside motifs.
