The projects on each sheet picture cute Hummel ceramic figurines, based on the drawings and paintings of German nun Maria Innocentia Hummel. Sister Hummel's works were discovered by Franz Goebel (the head of a porcelain company) after a small publisher began printing her artwork, featuring youthful innocence, as postcards. Goebel started production of the figurines in 1935. Sister Hummel was born in Bavaria in 1909 as Berta Hummel, she died in 1946 of tuberculosis, at only 37 years old.
