Description from the seller
Full title: "Das Waldlied. Ein Gedicht in 11 Versen mit 6 Scherenschnitten für kleine und große Kinder"
An original manuscript. Text in German. Half pink silk hardback with black leaves. Handmade label to the front board.
In addition to the blank end paper and illustrated title page, there are eight further leaves, inked to one side only.
The foreword explains how this is a tale picked up from elves dancing in the round in the forest. There are then six leaves which contain verses in manuscript, and cut silhouettes to each leaf. Finally, there is a naïve end paper with the moon and sheep.
The boards are in sound but slightly rubbed and bumped condition. Internally, the pages are in good, clean condition with no significant marks.
An attractive original work. 23 x 31 cm
