Drey schöne neue Geistliche Lieder
A German hymnal printed in 1696, probably in a Swiss or German press, issued for devotional singing by lay congregations. The picture is a woodcut tailpiece or ornamental border of two winged putti with foliage and scrolls, mirrored across a central gap. A designer could take its symmetrical, carved line work and the way cupids and leaves fill a narrow horizontal strip.
