Die Reisenden für Länder- und Völkerkunde: Mit Schotts Bilde

Cunradi, Johann Gottlieb [Hrsg.], Papst, Johann Georg Friedrich [Hrsg.], Felßeckerische Buchhandlung [Hrsg.] · 1788 · 2 pictures

Die Reisenden für Länder- und Völkerkunde is a German travel and ethnography periodical of 1788, edited by Johann Gottlieb Cunradi and Johann Georg Friedrich Papst and published by the Felßeckerische Buchhandlung, now held by Heidelberg University Library. Its frontispiece is an oval stipple portrait in profile of a man in eighteenth-century dress, labelled A. L. Schott on a plinth, with a library stamp from Heidelberg on the other page. A designer could draw on the restrained oval portrait framing and the classical plinth lettering as models for formal commemorative layouts.
