Der Kinderengel : Spruchbüchlein für fromme Kinder : mit Luther's Brief an sein Söhnlein Hänsischen und Bildern
Der Kinderengel is an 1873 German devotional picture book for pious children, with verses by Carl Gottlieb Peschel and illustrations by Ludwig Richter, printed by Richter and including a letter from Martin Luther to his young son. The four pictures are fine wood-engraved scenes of children with angels, birds, a village church and a bedside, drawn in a gentle, detailed line that suits storybook, nursery or sentimental vignette work.
