Der Pündtnerische Brügel Krieg. Welche die dapfferen vnd Mannhafften Prättigäuwer wider jhre Feynd zu handen genommen : Im Thon: Wie man den Graaffen von Seryn singt

1622 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 1 picture

A German-language broadside ballad printed in Gernsch (Chur region, Graubünden) in 1622, a song sheet recounting the Prättigau peasants' defeat of enemies in the Grisons conflict, sung to the tune of an older ballad. The woodcut frame encloses a single armed figure with a staff beside a stacked pile of logs, a plain emblem that a designer could borrow for rustic, folk-print typography.
