Bilder-Reise durch alle fünf Welttheile oder die Nationen und Völkerstämme der Erde für die fleißige Jugend zur Unterhaltung und Selbstbelehrung
An 1843 German picture book of peoples and tribes of the world, published by G. N. Renner & Comp. and written by Willibald Alexis for diligent young readers. Each hand-coloured plate shows a costumed figure or group from a different nation with a rhyming German verse beneath, set in a decorative border of flowers and scrollwork; a designer could draw on the folk costume details, the framed vignette layout, and the botanical border ornament.
