Wie's im Hause geht, nach dem Alphabet : in 25 Bildern

Pletsch, Oscar, Bürkner, Hugo · 1872 · Verlag von Alphons Dürr · 28 pictures

An 1872 German picture book by Oscar Pletsch, with verses by Hugo Bürkner, published by Alphons Dürr in Leipzig, presenting household life as an alphabet of twenty-five scenes for children. The pictures are fine wood-engraved interiors with cramped domestic rooms, stoves, plain furniture and busy children, offering a designer a study in nineteenth-century middle-class domestic detail and crowded group composition.
