Drey schöne weltliche Lieder : Ein jedes in seiner selbst eigenen Melodey
A German songbook printed around 1700, its three secular songs each given their own melody, probably issued by the publisher Johann Conrad von Mechel for a general readership of singers and music lovers. The single picture is a dense woodcut ornament of scrolling tendrils, leaves and fleur-de-lis-like sprigs in a symmetrical shield-like cartouche, a model for Baroque-style decorative borders, title-page emblems and printed pattern work.
