Gulliver's Reisen in unbekannte Länder : mit 4 Abbildungen
This is a German-language 1880 illustrated edition of Jonathan Swift's Gulliver's Travels, published in Stuttgart by Gebrüder Kröner (per the imprint) for a general German reading public and young readers. The four engravings are printed as small wood-engraved plates with German captions quoting the text beneath each scene. Designers can take from them the compact, sketchy, woodcut-style storytelling of nineteenth-century German book illustration, with figures set against simple backgrounds and clear narrative moments.
