Die Bergpredigt Jesu Christi in der Lutherschen + Übersetzung.
Leipzig: F. A. Lattman, 1910. Small quarto. (16)pp. Lettering, title page, and ornaments in black, red, and gold by Rudolf Koch. A bold production of Jesus' Sermon on the Mount, printed in Kochschrift, so that the design bridges the flourishes of medieval manuscripts and the sleekness of early twentieth-century type. The book likewise reflects Koch's religious sentiments; Koch was a devout Lutheran, and here his type and decoration balance the weight of Christ's teachings with the lightness of spirituality. Bound in full vellum with title in black and red on upper cover. Scant foxing throughout, else a near fine copy of an uncommon work, known in only two institutional holdings. Item #30370
