Ein hüpsch Lied von dem Edlen Hiltebrandt
A 1575 printed song-broadside of the ballad of the noble Hildebrand, published in Basel by Samuel Apiario and held by the Zürich Zentralbibliothek. The first picture is a woodcut of two armoured knights on horseback facing each other under a heading, with the title set in blackletter; a designer could take from it the compact, narrow-framed composition of a title block with a central figure panel. The second picture is a purple library seal showing a shield and the words Zentralbibliothek Zürich, which is a library mark rather than part of the book.
