G. Ferry's Waldläufer : G. Ferry [d.i. Louis Gabriel de Bellemare] ; Erlebnisse und Abenteuer in den Steppen und Urwäldern Nord-Amerika's. Für die Jugend bearbeitet von Karl Müller. Mit 6 colorirten Abbildungen

Ferry, Gabriel, Müller, Karl Wilhelm · 1865 · Verlag von G. Neuse · 6 pictures

A German youth adventure book from 1865, published by Verlag von G. Neuse, adapting Gabriel Ferry's tale of woodsmen in the North American steppes and forests for young readers, edited by Karl Müller. Its four visible pictures are hand-coloured lithographs showing rocky mountain scenery, a rider on a rearing white horse, a figure on a cliff ledge, and a campfire scene in dense woodland. A designer might take the loose, sketchy shading combined with flat watercolour-like colour washes, which gives a quick, outdoorsy, nineteenth-century storybook feel.
