Zwey schöne neue Lieder
A German-language song sheet titled Zwey schöne neue Lieder, printed around 1700 by Johann Conrad von Mechel I, probably for popular singing among ordinary readers. The picture is a symmetrical woodcut ornament of a central tulip-like bloom flanked by fruit and grape clusters tied with a ribbon at the base, a tidy device a designer could adapt as a centred headpiece, border motif or emblem.
