A 1620 German broadside ballad printed by Johann Schröter, telling of the Battle of Laupen in the manner of a chronicle, likely sold for a general reading public. Its woodcut title picture shows two armoured halberdiers in plumed helmets flanking a shield bearing a large heraldic emblem, with a stylised floral border below, offering a designer bold, symmetrical figures and a compact heraldic composition to adapt.
