Zwey schöne Geistliche Lieder
A 1642 German devotional songbook of two spiritual hymns, attributed to Wolf Gernold and published by Georg Sonnleitner, intended for lay Christian readers singing sacred songs. Its title page has a small woodcut of a richly dressed man at a table, with a crowd of heavenly bodies and a figure beside a dog, and the crude, bold line work shows how early modern printers built a scene from simple black cuts and dense lettering, a useful model for compact, hierarchical text-and-image layouts.
