Bärenholds Lustige Feld-Lieder

Kuhn, Johann Joseph · 1712 · [Niklaus Emanuel Haller] · 2 pictures

Bärenholds Lustige Feld-Lieder is a German songbook of military and drinking songs, printed in 1712 and published by Niklaus Emanuel Haller, with the title set in blackletter type. The first picture is a woodcut ornament of a face framed by scrolls, leaves and fruit, and the second is a title page with two cherubs blowing trumpets beneath a centred title block; a designer could take the ornamental framing and the hand-set type hierarchy for period-styled layouts.
