Kinderstube / Nursery (colour litho)

Kinderstube. Mancher Gegenstand unserer modernen Kinderstube war bereits im 16 Jahrh in Gebrauch. Im beweglichen Laufstuhl oder von der Mutter am Laufgurtel (spater Gangelband) gehalten, machte das Kind seine ersten Schritte, nachdem es der Wiege entwachsen war, die sich oft von einer Generation zur anderen vererbte und meist bereits zum Aussteuerinventar gehorte. Translation: Nursery. Many an object of our modern nursery was already in use in the 16th century. The child took its first steps in a moving walking chair or held by the mother on a walking belt (later walking belt), after it had outgrown the cradle, which was often inherited from one generation to the next and usually already belonged to the dowry inventory.
