Der Vielgeprüfte : eine Erzählung für die Jugend

Heinrich, Grünewald · 1836 · Arnz · 7 pictures

A German children's narrative from 1836, published by Arnz and illustrated by Grünewald, written for young readers. Its hand-coloured lithographs show a boy in a blue coat and grey breeches kneeling in prayer, a camp fire scene with a torch-bearing figure in a red coat, a kneeling figure at a wooden grave cross beside a priest, and a boy seated by a cave with a dog; a designer could take the soft, muted palette of blue, green and red and the framed vignette layout with captions.
