Carl und Erdmuthe und ihre Spielgenossen : Ein Erzählungsbuch für die Jugend mittlern Alters. Von Carl Blumauer. Mit illuminirten Kupfern
Carl und Erdmuthe und ihre Spielgenossen is a German children's storybook of 1836 by Carl Blumauer, published by Gebrüder Reichenbach for readers of middle childhood, with hand-coloured copperplate engravings. Its pictures show rural and domestic scenes: children playing outdoors, a winter skating crowd, a meal with soldiers and boys, and a horse-drawn carriage on a tree-lined road, all in soft, sober colour that a designer could borrow for period palettes.
