Neueste Fabeln und Bilder für die Jugend : mit 50 Abbildungen
A German children's book of fables and pictures, issued in 1850 by the Hoffmann'sche Verlags-Buchhandlung and credited to Friedrich Hoffmann, with fifty illustrations for young readers. The four pictures show small rural scenes: a village with church spire under bare trees, a boy and girl with a man at a doorway by a river, a family strolling in a garden, and a man in a fur hat beside snowy firs watching skaters. A designer might take their simple, open line engraving and wide, airy sky spaces for quiet, uncluttered vignettes.
