Drey schöne Neue Lieder : Das erste: Edles Jagen, kanns wohl sagen, wo etc. ...
A small woodcut-illustrated German songsheet of three new songs, printed without a named printer and held by the Zentralbibliothek Zürich, likely meant for popular singing in the early modern German-speaking lands. The single picture is a crude black-line woodcut of a hunt: a hunter in a feathered hat points while a lady in a long dress floats above the scene, and a stag lies sprawled on a rocky ledge beside a fox, with a dead hunter and spear in the foreground and a town on the hillside. Its bold outline, simple cross-hatching and compact narrative composition could inspire designers seeking rustic, stylised hunting-scene graphics for posters, labels or packaging.
