Freuden-Opfer auf Den feyerlichen Ostermontag 1795, Als Meine Hochwohlgebohrne Gnädige Herren Der Stadt und Republik Bern Die Hohe Standes-Glieder erneuerten

1795 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 2 pictures

A German occasional print from 1795 issued by an unidentified publisher, celebrating the Easter Monday renewal of the council members of the city and republic of Bern, and held by the University Library Bern. The two pictures are small woodcut-style tailpieces: one a dense repeating border of ornamental medallions with scrolling foliage, the other a plain sarcophagus-like urn draped with a garland and topped with foliage, suggesting ready-made decorative units for period typography and framing.
