A 1629 German-language song sheet printed in Basel, attributed to Friedrich Cornelius and issued by Johann Schröter, celebrating Dutch Republic victories over Spain under Prince Henry Frederick of Orange and admiral Piet Pieterszoon Hein. The two pictures are woodcut ornamental cartouches: a blank shield framed by grotesque bearded masks and scrolls, and a central helmeted face flanked by lion heads within curling strapwork. A designer might take from them the dense, symmetrical strapwork and grotesque mask vocabulary of early seventeenth-century German woodcut borders.
