Zigeunerleben

Lang, Heinrich · 1860 · 1 picture

A nineteenth-century German illustrated sheet titled Zigeunerleben, made by Heinrich Lang and published around 1860 in the Münchener Bilderbogen series for a general popular readership. Its pictures are small black-and-white engravings in three tiers: a covered wagon pulled by horses, a camp of tents with horses and seated figures, and mounted riders in dark uniforms beside travelling families. A designer might take the loose, crowded camp scenes and the layered tiered arrangement as a model for organising multi-panel narrative layouts.
