Trauer-Lied von Meilen, von einer unglüklichen Begebenheit, welche sich auf dem Zürich-See ereignet hat
A German-language mourning ballad printed in 1798 without a named printer, the Trauer-Lied von Meilen about a tragic accident on Lake Zurich, attributed to Rudolf Reithaar and held by the ZB Zürich library, likely a cheap broadside for popular readers. Its single picture is a small woodcut of a skull framed by an oval of crossed leaves and lattice, a memento mori emblem a designer could adapt for vanitas or funeral motifs.
