Die Jahreszeiten : ein Kinderbuch in Bildern und Liedern
A German children's picture book of seasons, published in 1887 by Ruhl and written by Georg Scherer, pairing illustrations with songs and verses for young readers. The pictures show a small girl in a bonnet and red dress at a pond with bulrushes, a girl feeding a songbird beside blossoming branches, and a girl in green seated on a low wall, with delicate watercolour washes, pink roses and framed plates that a designer could borrow for seasonal or nostalgic palettes and borders.
