1677 · [Johann Jakob Bernhard] · 2 pictures

This is a 1677 German devotional hymn songbook, printed in Solothurn by Johann Jakob Bernhard for Christian readers, telling of Adam and Eve's fall and humanity's redemption through Christ's suffering and resurrection. Its title page shows a woodcut of a kneeling, haloed figure with a banner above a Latin-style inscription, framed by a text block; the second picture is a dense ornamental woodcut of a central grotesque mask flanked by scrolls, foliage and hanging tassels, useful for baroque border and cartouche ideas.
