Ein Tag aus dem Kinderleben : 16 Bilder nach
A German children's picture book from 1875, published by Oehmigke, with sixteen images after Franz Wiedemann and Clara Kelber, shown here as decorated initial letters with floral scrollwork that open each verse. The pictures are ornamental capitals in blackletter style, built from acanthus-like leaves, stems, and blossoms, which a designer could adapt for decorative drop caps or border frames.
