Bunte Bilder für brave Kinder

Braun, Heinrich, Schuhwerk, Franz, Holm, Adolf · 1895 · Braun & Schneider · 32 pictures

A German children's picture book, Bunte Bilder für brave Kinder, produced in 1895 by Braun & Schneider with illustrations credited to Heinrich Braun and Franz Schuhwerk and verse by Adolf Holm, aimed at well-behaved children. Its hand-coloured pages pair small vignettes, some in round or arched frames, with rhyming German verses set in columns beneath each scene. A designer might take its tidy grid of framed vignettes, soft watercolour palette and simple schoolroom and street scenes as a model for layout and storytelling in a series of small panels.
