Zwey schöne neue Geistliche Lieder

Streit · 1686 · [Witwe von Samuel Kneubühler] · 1 picture

A small 1686 German devotional songsheet, printed for a German-speaking Christian readership, probably in Switzerland; the title page cut shows two winged putti holding a shield under a crown above a row of flames, with the imprint 'Gedruckt im Jahr Christi 1686' below. A designer could take the compact woodcut vignette with its cherubs, crown and shield as a model for a bordered emblem or heraldic label.
