Les vacances d'Élisabeth
Les vacances d'Élisabeth is a children's story by Mlle de Martignat, published in Paris by Librairie Hachette in 1887. Its pictures are pen-and-ink wood engravings in a loose, sketchy hand, showing outdoor scenes of a young woman, a gentleman with a hat and walking stick, and a child in a frilled dress among trees. A designer could take their lively line work and naturalistic figure poses as a model for period narrative sketches.
