Gernold, Wolf · 1634 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 1 picture

A 1634 German devotional songbook titled Die Himmel-Strasse, attributed to Wolf Gernold and published with an unidentified printer, held by the University Library Bern. Its single woodcut shows a scene with figures in period dress, including a man in a wide-brimmed hat and a seated or kneeling figure, framed above a block of blackletter text, offering a designer a compact example of early seventeenth-century German book illustration with strong dense typography.
