[König Nußknacker und der arme Reinhold]

Hoffmann, Heinrich · 1860 · Literarische Verlagsanstalt] · 17 pictures

König Nussknacker und der arme Reinhold is a German picture book by Heinrich Hoffmann, published around 1860 in the Struwwelpeter series for children. The coloured plates show a small town square with a red-coated boy, a large bald figure in a blue uniform with a gilded collar, a crowd of marching soldiers with flags, and a fairy-tale castle, each with rhymed verse set beneath. A designer might take the bold flat colour, the stout caricatured figures, and the layout of framed scenes above text blocks.
