1656 · [David Hautt?] · 1 picture

A 1656 German broadside-style songbook printed for the Bern region, its title promising a bear dance and a contest between a bear and a wild man sung to a familiar tune, with the publisher given as David Hautt. The single picture is an ornamental border of interlaced knotwork, scrolling foliage and geometric fret blocks, the kind of woodcut frame a designer could borrow for panels, dividers or period-style edges.
