Drey schöne Geistliche Lieder

Gletting, Benedict, H. B. B · 1686 · [Witwe von Samuel Kneubühler] · 1 picture

A German hymnal of spiritual songs, printed in 1686 by the widow of Samuel Kneubühler and held by the UB Bern library, with a single woodcut ornament of a flower basket. The picture is a bold, dense black-on-paper woodcut of a lattice-woven basket overflowing with tulips, lilies and sprigs, a folk-style floral motif a designer could adapt for pattern repeats, borders or botanical lettering.
