Neue Bildergallerie für die Jugend
A German illustrated book for young readers, the Neue Bildergallerie für die Jugend, printed in 1835 by Carl Hellfarth's lithographic press. Its pictures are small plain lithographs with German captions, showing animals, foreign peoples, a lighthouse, and a harbour town. A designer could take from them the tidy, uncoloured vocabulary of early nineteenth-century educational prints, with simple framed vignettes and clear outlines.
