Ein schöns Lied der Strygel genandt und ist inn des Lindenschmidts Thon zusingen : ein ander Lied, freündtlicher Gruoss mit Buoss etc

durch Valentin Schönigk ... · 1 picture

A 16th-century German broadside song sheet, printed for singing to a named tune and published by Valentin Schönigk, held by the Zentralbibliothek Zürich. The picture shows a woodcut of a man in a tub being shaved or washed by a figure with a razor, beside a nude figure, under a black-letter title in Fraktur type; a designer could take its compact framing of text above a single narrative scene, with the hand-coloured woodcut giving a flat, folk-print quality.
