Ein schöner Spruch, Der Schlacht so zu Dornach beschehen Jm 1499. Jar, zuo Lob vnnd Ehr einer Loblichen Eydgnoschafft, insonders aber der Uralten Statt Solothurn zu Ehren gestellt
A 1605 Basel printed broadside, a verse ballad by Ulrich Wirri celebrating the 1499 Battle of Dornach for the Swiss Confederation and the city of Solothurn, printed by Johann Schröter. The pictures show a title page with a black-letter display heading and a woodcut of an armoured soldier holding a shield with a scrolled cartouche, set above a Gothic-style imprint line; a designer could take the bold blackletter hierarchy and the crisp, hatched woodcut armour and heraldic shield as strong period lettering and emblem references.
