Note du spécialiste

In the foreground lies the lamentation entitled S.V.B. Claeg-liedt by the Dutch poet Jan Jansz. Starter (1593-1626). The book in which this poem is included, Friesche Lusthof from 1621, was his principle work to which he largely owed his fame. Besides lamentations, the book contained love songs, wedding poems and drinking songs. The texts that accompanied his melodies of foreign, often English, origin were among his greatest achievements.

Possibly Frisian School.
