1600 · [Wyssenbach] · 2 pictures

A 1600 German-language printed song sheet in the Zurich Zentralbibliothek, published by Wyssenbach and written to praise the Three Leagues and the Valais for their alliance of 3 August 1600. The pictures are small woodcut ornaments from the printer's stock: a grotesque mask with scrolling strapwork dated 1601, and a symmetrical arabesque of interlaced vine and leaf forms, both suited to borders, dividers and vintage print headers.
