Fünff Schöne/ Geistliche Lieder : Ein jedes in seiner eignen Melodey zu singen

1710 · [Niklaus Emanuel Haller] · 1 picture

A German-language hymnal of five sacred songs, printed in 1710 and attributed to the publisher Niklaus Emanuel Haller, held by the University Library Bern for singers wanting each song in its own melody. The single picture is a small woodcut tailpiece or headpiece: a bearded face framed by scrolling acanthus leaves, tulip-like blooms, and a garland of fruit or skulls below, a dense ornament a designer could borrow for a decorative border or heading.
