1909
Elisabeth Schellbach brings a whimsical touch to this 1909 illustration, depicting a family of geese embarking on a very human-like journey through a pastoral landscape. The father goose, looking quite dapper in a feathered hat and bow tie, leads the way with a cane and red umbrella, while the mother pulls a cart of resting ducklings past a thatched cottage. Titled 'Komische Käuze' (a German pun meaning both 'Funny Birds' and 'Eccentric Characters'), this charming scene captures the playful spirit of early 20th-century children's book art. It’s a delightful snapshot of anthropomorphic adventure that feels like a page straight out of a classic storybook.
