Die Kinderwelt in Bildern und Erzählungen : für gute Knaben und Mädchen
Die Kinderwelt in Bildern und Erzählungen is a hand-coloured children's picture book by Jakob Glatz, published in 1809 by Gerhard Fleischer the Younger, for well-behaved boys and girls. Its copperplate scenes show Regency-era children and young adults in outdoor garden settings, with pale washes of yellow, rose and blue. A designer could draw on the clean outlines, soft green foliage and fashionable empire-waist dress silhouettes for period costume work.
