Der tägliche Erzähler für kleine Kinder, zum Gebrauch der Eltern und Lehrer ; mit 21 Abbildungen auf Kupfertafeln
A German children's storybook of 1828 by Heinrich Müller, published by Christian Ernst Kollmann, written for small children to be read aloud by parents and teachers and illustrated with 21 copperplate engravings. The hand-coloured plate shown has two framed scenes: a fire in a courtyard with a figure throwing up his arms beside a burning shed, and a family gathered at a table in a covered terrace. Designers could take its flat, outlined figure style and its loose hand-colouring as a model for simple narrative panels.
