Robinson Crusoe's Reisen, wunderbare Abenteuer und Erlebnisse : Fürs Deutsche bearbeitet nach dem Original des Daniel de Foe. Mit 41 Text-Abbildungen nebst 4 Farbendruckbildern nach Zeichnungen von F. H. Nicholson
An 1904 German adaptation of Daniel Defoe's Robinson Crusoe, published by Verlag von Otto Spamer and illustrated after drawings by F. H. Nicholson for a general German readership of young people and adults. The pictures are black-and-white wood engravings set within pages of German text, showing castaway scenes such as a figure on a rocky shore, a boat fight, and survivors tended on the beach. A designer could draw on their dense hatching, rounded vignette framing, and tropical undergrowth for period adventure motifs.
