Zwey Neue Geistliche Lieder

1709 · [Niklaus Emanuel Haller I] · 2 pictures

A German-language hymn sheet or small devotional songbook, published around 1709 by Niklaus Emanuel Haller I, probably in Bern, and intended for churchgoers and home devotion. Its two woodcut ornaments are flower vessels, one a shallow footed bowl with blooming stems and scrolled sides, the other a tall urn of dense bouquets with bird-headed handles, offering a designer clear models for crisp, stylised botanical borders and vase motifs in early eighteenth-century print.
