Der Dannhauser : Wie er in Fraw Venus Berg gezogen/ vnd wie es jm alda ergangen ist/ [et]c. : Im Thon/ Wie das Frewlin mit dem Krůg

1584 · bey Samuel Apiario · 1 picture

A 1584 German broadside ballad, the Tannhäuser legend of Venus's mountain, printed by Samuel Apiarius for popular readers. Its one picture is a small woodcut ornament: a winged cherub face between two round medallions and tasselled hangings, cut in dense parallel hatching that a designer could borrow for printed borders and headers.
