[Der Affe liebt die Äpfel sehr...]

1850 · 7 pictures

A hand-coloured German children's rhyme sheet from around 1850, with each stanza under a small animal or object picture, meant to teach verse and moral lessons to young readers. The pictures are simple, naive woodcut-like scenes with flat bright colour, and a designer might borrow their charming, sparse storybook economy of figure and caption.
