Münchener Bilderbogen 50: [Nro 1177-1200]

1177 · Braun & Schneider · 25 pictures

Münchener Bilderbogen is a series of illustrated broadsheets published by Braun & Schneider in Munich, printed as cheap sheets of comic and satirical woodcut-style scenes with short German verses beneath each picture, made for a general popular audience. The pictures here are black-and-white line illustrations arranged in grids of framed vignettes, with figures in costume, street scenes, and animal and fantasy subjects; a designer could take their tight panel layouts and bold caricatured figures as models for sequential or narrative graphics.
