Lustige Gesellschaft : Bilderbuch
A picture book published in Munich in 1867 by Braun & Schneider, made by the Bavarian count and illustrator Franz von Pocci for children. Its hand-coloured woodcut-style plates are numbered in the corners and show comic caricatured figures in costume. A designer could draw on the exaggerated silhouettes, bold outlines and flat colour washes for character-driven folk-style illustration.
