Das deutsche Heer : Ein Bilderbuch für deutsche Knaben
A German picture book of 1900 published by Weise, meant for German boys, showing the imperial army's uniforms and units. Its colour lithographs present soldiers in formation on parade and on horseback, each plate captioned with German verse beneath. A designer could take the crisp, saturated military palette, the strong diagonal massing of cavalry ranks, and the clear uniform silhouettes with their plumes, helmets and pennants.
