The lamentations of Germany
A 1638 London pamphlet by Philip Vincent, printed for John Rothwell, recounting supposed wonders and calamities during the Thirty Years' War in Germany for a general English readership. Its small crude woodcut-style engravings show bloody scenes of violence, the dead rising from graves, and people taking poison, a useful reference for macabre, dense narrative panel layouts and early seventeenth-century crowded composition.
