Ein schön new Liedt/ Wie Christus den Lazarum von dem Todt aufferweckt hat : Im Thon/ wie man den Herzog Ernst singt

Rogel, Hans · 1615 · [Verlag nicht ermittelbar] · 1 picture

A 1615 German broadside hymn sheet, printed in blackletter type, telling how Christ raised Lazarus from the dead and sung to the tune of Duke Ernst. Its publisher is unidentified and it was likely made for popular singing in German-speaking lands. The single woodcut below the text shows two men at work beside a table with a figure in the centre, rendered in bold black line, a plain treatment a designer could borrow for tight, high-contrast panels or vintage typographic layouts.
