Der Schlemmer geystlich, im Thon, Wo soll ich mich hinkeren, ich thumes Brüderlein : ; ein ander geystlich Liedt, im Thon, Was wirt es doch, dess wunders noch etc

durch Valentin Schönigk auff unser Frawen Thor · 1 picture

A German broadsheet songbook of spiritual song texts, printed by Valentin Schönigk at Nuremberg's Frauentor for popular readers and singers. Its woodcut shows two hand-coloured figures, a bearded monk in a long purple robe and a feathered young nobleman in red and green, framed in rectangles above the text, offering a simple two-figure contrast of costume and social type that a designer could adapt for character pairings.
