Agathon im Kreise der Kinder oder die angenehmen Abende zu Burgdorf : mit 4 illuminirten Kupfern
Agathon im Kreise der Kinder is an 1831 German children's book by Augustin Edmund Engelbrecht, published by Ambrosi, with four hand-coloured copper engravings. The pictures show scenes of rural travellers, soldiers escorting a prisoner through a town, a shepherd couple with sheep, and a boat crew with a turbaned figure at sea, rendered in soft, flat colour that a designer could use as a reference for early nineteenth-century costume and outdoor scene composition.
