Ger. Feld, Dutch veld, possibly cognate with O.E. f olde, the earth, and ultimately with root of the Gr. irAaror, broad)

field of See also:caricature and comic drawings

He joined the See also:staff of the Fliegende Bldtter, to which he became a See also:constant contributor
.
Unlike See also:Busch, whose aim was the utmost simplicity of See also:line and whose drawings See also:form a See also:running commentary to the See also:legend, See also:Oberlander's See also:work is essentially pictorial, and expressive in itself, without the extraneous aid of the written line
.
Among his best drawings are his parodies on the See also:style of well-known painters, such as the " See also:Variations on the Kissing Theme." His See also:works have been collected in the Oberldnder-See also:Album, published by Braun and See also:Schneider in Munich
