Vier schöne neue Weltliche Lieder : Jedes in seiner eigenen Melodey zu singen

1720 · [Johann Conrad von Mechel II] · 1 picture

A German songbook of four secular songs, printed in 1720 by Johann Conrad von Mechel II and held by the UB Bern library. The single picture is a black printed ornament, a symmetrical arrangement of scrolling foliage and interlaced tendrils on a pale ground, likely a decorative headpiece or tailpiece. A designer could take from it the dense, mirror-symmetric scrollwork as a model for borders, frames or title-page ornament.
