Drey schöne Neue Lieder

1734 · bey Benedict Antoni Schüßler · 1 picture

A German songbook titled Drey schöne Neue Lieder, printed in 1734 by Benedict Antoni Schüßler, held by the UB Bern library, with a small woodcut of a double-headed eagle wearing a crown at its head. The woodcut is bold black-on-paper with heavy hatching in the wings and feathers, and a designer could borrow its symmetrical heraldic shape and dense engraved line work for emblems, crests or seals.
