Die Jahreszeiten : ein Bilderbuch mit schönen Gedichten für die Jugend
Die Jahreszeiten is a German picture book of seasonal verses for young readers, made by Amalie von Gross and published around 1850, with the publisher unidentified. Its hand-coloured plates show animal fables and rural scenes: a snowman by a fence, hares in a forest clearing, a scarecrow among birds. A designer could draw on the lively, naive colour and the storytelling of small animals in woodland and farmland settings.
