Goldmacher-Catechismus : in Frag und Antwort, zum Nutzen und Vergnügen aller derjenigen, welche in diesem Hospital krank darnieder liegen, lehrend, wie sie wieder zur wahren Erkänntniß gelangen können
Goldmacher-Catechismus is a question-and-answer tract by Johann Gottfried Jugel, printed in 1776 by Christian Ulrich Ringmacher, written for patients lying ill in a hospital. Its two pictures are small decorative headpieces of Rococo scrollwork, one a symmetrical cartouche with leaf sprays and the other a cartouche flanked by a putto holding a branch. Designers could draw on their asymmetric C-scroll frames, foliage tendrils and crisp black-on-tan woodcut line for ornamental dividers.
