Ein Geistliches Klag-Lied. Einer betrübten Seele/ Zu JEsu ihrem Erlöser : Hastu dann mein gar vergessen/ JEsu liebster Heyland mein! [et]c. : Im Thon: GOtt des Himmels und der Erden

1688 · [Witwe von Samuel Kneubühler] · 1 picture

A German devotional hymn sheet, a spiritual lament addressed to Jesus, printed in 1688 by the widow of Samuel Kneubühler and held by the University Library of Bern. The single woodcut shows two winged cherubs carrying a striped barrel-like object over a bank of grass, with a small crown above, and offers a designer a compact example of simple, rhythmic 17th-century devotional woodcut vignette work with strong silhouette and hatching.
