Trauriges Klag-Lied Deß Bären, Uber Die verlohrne Schlacht, so zu Vilmergen gehalten worden. Jm Thon: Wie man den Thanhauser singt

1712 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 1 picture

A German broadside ballad of 1712 from an unidentified publisher, held by the Zentralbibliothek Zürich, mourning a lost battle at Vilmergen and sung to a popular tune for a general readership. The single picture is a small woodcut of a plant with branching stems, budded tips and a spreading root mass, set on a pale ground, offering a designer a simple botanical line motif with strong silhouette and organic rhythm.
