Geschichte Bayerns. Unter Zugrundelegung von Lorenz von Westenrieders bayerischer Geschichte neu bearbeitet, dem Volke erzählt, und mit Beigaben aus der bayerischen Culturgeschichte und Sage versehen. ... Mit vielen Holzschnittbildern
A popular history of Bavaria published in 1874, reworked by Josef Maria Mayer from Lorenz von Westenrieder's chronicle and written for general German readers, with added material on Bavarian cultural history and legend. The 104 wood engravings stage medieval episodes as shallow theatrical tableaux: armoured knights in mail and heraldic surcoats, dukes enthroned or kneeling before crenellated walls and round towers, with hatched shading and short captions beneath—useful for figure groups, heraldic garments, and stock medieval architecture.
