This 1537 Zurich broadside song sheet, printed by Matthias Apiarius for a Protestant lay audience, sets a devotional hymn on the Lord's Supper to a known tune. Its woodcut shows a haloed figure of Christ beside two seated men in period dress above a decorative frieze, a simple vocabulary of religious emblems a designer could adapt for historical or devotional themes.
