Onkel Karl bringt seinen Neffen und Nichten Märchen, Lieder und Geschichten auch Fabeln und Räthsel : Mit colorirten Bildern
A coloured German children's picture book from 1856, published by K. Thienemann's Verlag, offering fairy tales, songs, stories, fables and riddles to nephews and nieces. Its hand-coloured plates show small scenes of household and village life: a boy with a dog at a window, a boy leading a calf, a Christmas fir being decorated, and a doll-like lady beside a hussar in uniform. A designer might take the flat, pastel colouring, the framed single-scene plates and the short captions set beneath each image.
