These are illustrations from a German children's book published in 1910, Wer kommt?, or Who's coming? in English. The entire book can be found online at the State Library of Berlin. In case you can't tell: I really like children's literature. I really like illustrations. These have a wonderful wobbly line quality that's really swell. Also, the perspective isn't quite right, but it's there. You're not exactly standing on the same plane as the picture, but you're not that far away either? The point is that I love these and want prints of them for my future home. I think they'd look splendid in a big white kitchen with a rustic table and some jars for glasses, filled with warm tea.
