Erzählungen für junge Mädchen : mit 8 Bildern
A German-language story collection for young girls, written by Charlotte Späth and published in 1858 by Schmidt & Spring, illustrated with eight lithographs. The four pictures shown are small domestic and street scenes in soft tonal lithography: a doorway group of figures, a kneeling girl by a hearth with a seated woman, a crowd of men and a woman in a hall, and a top-hatted gentleman with a lamp post beside a girl sitting against a wall. A designer might take their tight figure grouping, lamplight and shadow, and simple interior staging as models for narrative scenes.
