Biedermeier : Deutschland von 1815-1847
Biedermeier: Deutschland von 1815-1847 is a 1922 German art-history survey by Max von Boehn, published in Berlin by B. Cassirer, covering the domestic culture of Germany between 1815 and 1847. Its pictures are reproduced prints of the period: a rotated interior genre scene, an ornamental allegorical frame of vines and figures, a Gothic-arched panel with a decorated initial, and a crowd gathered around a maypole with a banner reading Schnderhüpfeln. A designer might take from them the dense ornamental framing and the convivial folk-scene composition.
