Lust und Lehre : in unterhaltenden Mährchen und Erzählungen für die liebe Jugend, von 7-12 Jahren ; mit 7 Kupfern
Lust und Lehre is an 1827 German children's storybook of entertaining fairy tales and stories by Amalie Schoppe, published by Taubert for young readers aged seven to twelve, with seven hand-coloured copper engravings. The four pictures show indoor domestic scenes with period dress: a formal dinner table with servants, a bedroom confrontation with soldiers holding torches and muskets, a man speaking to a boy beside a birdcage on a draped table, and a tutor-like figure gesturing to children at a desk. Their clean outlines, flat hand-colour and framed interiors offer a designer useful reference for early nineteenth-century costume and tabletop staging.
