Ein schön Lied von der Schlacht vor Dornach, beschähen zwüschen den Eydgnossen, den fünff Stetten Zürych, Bern, Lutzern, Zug unnd Soloturn und dem Römischen Künig
A 1545 German-language printed ballad sheet from Zurich's publishing scene, issued under the name Augustin Fries, telling of the Swiss confederates' battle at Dornach against the Roman king and made for popular readers who bought such songs. The title page woodcut shows a walled town with towers and a gateway, with armoured figures below, and the pictures suggest a designer could draw on the compact, hatched woodcut style of sixteenth-century broadside title blocks for castle or fortress motifs.
