Zwey schöne Lieder
A German songbook of 1730, Zwey schöne Lieder, probably printed for a general reading and singing public. The single picture is a woodcut-style ornament of a flower bouquet tied with a ribbon, with roses, tulips and leafy sprigs arranged in a symmetrical V shape on aged paper. A designer could take the mirrored floral arrangement and its tied-bouquet structure as a model for border or header ornament.
