Sechs neue Bilder
Sechs neue Bilder is a set of six wood-engraved genre prints by Anton Muttenthaler, published in Munich in 1849 as part of the Münchener Bilderbogen series for a popular audience of children and families. Each small framed scene shows a German trade or folk figure from everyday town and countryside life, with the subjects captioned beneath in German. The pictures are simple, legible and cleanly composed, offering a designer clear models for figure groupings, storytelling vignettes and small-format period woodcut style.
