Vier schöne Geistliche Lieder

1741 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 2 pictures

A German hymnal of 1741, printed with no identifiable publisher, probably for devotional use in a Lutheran household. Both pictures are small woodcut ornaments: a flower-filled urn with scrolling foliage, and a flower-and-fruit basket woven in hatched lines. A designer could take their dense, stylised botanical motifs and tidy border-filler approach for decorative frames and vignettes.
