Description: This woodcut print features a man giving praise to God, having laid down his harp and crown to do so, a gesture of exultation in renunciation for the sake of the Kingdom of God. This scene is used as the title-image of the section of the Lutheran hymnist Joseph Clauder’s (1586 – 1653 CE) Psalmnodia novae pars nova: sive selectissimorum hymnorum centura II dedicated to the themes of the believer’s crucifixion with Jesus and the suffering of persecution .
