A fine and unusual pattern book illustrated with photographs. The photographs with stamp of the photo studio Peter Geus Cologne and Mülheim. Heinrich Sander, taxidermist in Cologne offered this album with his best wishes to his uncle Carl Romanus, in May 1898. The photographs of which 22 cabinet size and 26 carte-de-visite size show various 'Lebendbilder' that is living tableaus of various animals in their natural habitat. This was a new form of an educational instrument for museums in this case for the Altona Museum of natural history to attract young visitors with these sometimes spectacular three-dimensional scenes.
