Fünff neue Handwercks-Lieder : Jedes in seiner eigenen Melodey

1690 · [Johann Rudolph Genath?] · 1 picture

A 1690 German printed songbook of five trade songs, published under Johann Rudolph Genath's name and held by UB Bern, meant for craftsmen and singers who would sing each song to its own familiar melody. The single picture is a plain title page: a block of black-letter text with a centred flower bouquet ornament above the closing line, offering a designer a model for hierarchical, symmetrical typographic layout with a botanical focal point.
