Ein hüpsch nüw lied vnd verantwortung dess Sturms halb beschähen zuo Piggoga : in der wyß wie das Paffier Lied

Manuel, Niklaus · 1570 · [Vinzenz im Hof?] · 2 pictures

A 1570 German broadsheet song sheet by Niklaus Manuel, printed in the Swiss lands, likely by Vinzenz im Hof, and written for popular singing to a known tune. The first picture is a dense black-letter text page framed by a large interlace ornament of knotted strapwork, and the second is a title page with a woodcut of a standing soldier with a staff and halberd beside a ruined stump, a picture a designer could use for medieval pattern work or for bold figure-and-frame layouts.
