Recha, die Jüdin : Mit 8 colorirten Bildern ; eine Erzählung für Kinder von 10-13 Jahren

Linden, Auguste · 1854 · Druck und Verlag von Friedrich Bartholomäus · 6 pictures

A German children's storybook of 1854 by Auguste Linden, published by Friedrich Bartholomäus, telling the tale of Recha, a Jewish girl, for readers aged ten to thirteen. Its eight hand-coloured lithographs sit in octagonal frames on cream paper, showing indoor and street scenes of costumed women and children. A designer might take from them the muted period palette of green bodices, yellow-green skirts and red coats, and the compact octagonal framing device.
