Märchen-Zauber : Text ; mit 24 vollfarbigen Bildern

Mussmann, Adolf, Bowley, May · 1890 · Molling · 29 pictures

Märchen-Zauber is a German fairy-tale picture book published by Molling in 1890, with text by Adolf Mussmann and illustrations by May Bowley for young readers. Its full-colour chromolithographs show costumed princesses, a kneeling prince with a lion, and a fairy godmother, with rhyming German verse set beneath each scene; a designer might borrow the soft pastel palette, the ornate gowns and the framed, storybook staging.
