Ein Buch für kleinere Kinder : nebst einem Titelkupfer

Mosch, Cora, von, Houwald, Ernst, von · 1838 · Bei Georg Joachim Göschen · 1 picture

A children's book from 1838, published by Georg Joachim Göschen and credited to Cora von Mosch and Ernst von Houwald, written for younger children in German. Its single hand-coloured frontispiece sits in an ornate border of scrollwork and cherubs, showing a richly dressed man at a table with a family and small figures in striped costumes. A designer could take from it the decorative framing, the saturated period colour, and the staged domestic tableau.
