Des Cappuciner Münchs Wider Das Evangelische Jubelfest/ außgesprengter Paßquill : Welchem/ an statt einer Retorsion vnd Antwort/ Jhr Herkommen/ Vrsprung vnd Natur/ berichtsweiß annectirt vnd angehenckt ist: auß welchem solcher Paßquill leichtlich judicirt werden kan
A 1618 German pamphlet printed in the Parnassian press, a polemical reply aimed at Protestant readers about the evangelical jubilee festival and a Capuchin monk's libel. The single woodcut shows a hooded Capuchin friar in a long habit beside a mitred bishop holding a crozier, both standing in small cut-out figures below dense black-letter type. A designer could take from it the compact hierarchy of a title page, where a few bold display lines of blackletter sit above a pair of rough, simplified figures and a centred imprint.
