1632 · [Jakob Stuber] · 1 picture

A 1632 German broadside printed in Germany, presenting a dialogue between the King of Sweden and Germany that recounts his conquests from the war's start to date, sung to a known tune. The single woodcut is a small scene of a tower on a rise with a crowd of figures and a flag, set above the printed title and the imprint line; a designer might take from it the compact, text-led layout of a sixteen-seventeenth-century news sheet with a small framing image.
