This page from Sigismundus Latomus's *Schön newes Modelbuch* (1608) features four different repeating patterns of geometric designs, likely for embroidery. This book served as a guide for needlework, showcasing a variety of motifs for embroiderers to copy and personalize. The page, which is one of many in the book, presents the designs in a simple, clear, and easily replicable manner, highlighting Latomus's skill as a pattern designer and his contribution to the history of needlework.
