[Drei geistliche Lieder]

Wagispach, Hans · 1630 · [Jakob Stuber?] · 1 picture

A small printed ornament from Hans Wagispach's 1630 German sacred songbook, published by Jakob Stuber, likely for devotional use by a German-speaking Protestant readership. The woodcut shows a symmetrical arrangement of a cornucopia-like horn overflowing with foliage, a central face framed by leaves and feathers, and scrolled volutes hanging from ribbon-like stems. A designer might take from it a compact, symmetrical baroque border or header device suited to vignettes, dividers, or heritage typography.
