Prinz Grünewald und Perlenfein mit ihrem lieben Eselein : ein Bildermärchen

Hoffmann, Heinrich · 1895 · Rütten & Loening · 26 pictures

A German picture-book fairy tale published by Rütten & Loening in 1895 and credited to Heinrich Hoffmann, aimed at young children. Its pages are hand-coloured and pair a small scene with a rhymed German verse set in a block beneath it. The pictures show costumed royals, a forest meeting, and a donkey in simple domestic settings, offering a designer a naive, flat-colour storybook style with bold outlines and tidy vertical layouts.
