Schorr, Nikolaus · 1650 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 2 pictures

A 1650 German-language broadside song and tale, a verse account of a bear-fought war between Geneva and Savoy, issued by an unidentified publisher and credited to Nikolaus Schorr, and preserved in the University Library of Bern. Its pictures are woodcut ornaments: a heraldic bear-supported shield with a text line above and a dense curling filigree cartouche, offering a designer ready models for armorial framing and decorative border work.
