Ein Schön new kurtzweilig Lied, Von einem Edelmann vnnd einem Schuomacher

Basel · 1591 · bey Samuel Apiarii Erben · 1 picture

A 1591 German song sheet printed in Basel by the heirs of Samuel Apiarius, with a woodcut of a nobleman and a shoemaker's wife. The title page shows a man in a cloak and feathered hat beside a woman in a long dress and veil, both drawn in bold black outline with minimal shading, a model for designers wanting simple folk-costume figures and period black-letter typography.
