Himmelblau : Lieder und Bilder für die Kinderwelt
Himmelblau is a children's songbook of German songs and pictures by Julius Nisle, published in Chur and Leipzig by Grubenmann around 1850 for young readers. Its hand-coloured lithographs show children at play in outdoor settings, with songs printed beneath each picture, and the decorative title page, with its flourished lettering and foliage borders, offers a designer ideas for ornamental framing and period typography.
