This woodcut print, "La Gloria et l'Honore di Ponti Tagliati, E Ponti in Aere, page 8 (verso)," from 1556 by Matteo Pagano, showcases the artist's intricate designs for embroidery. The page features three distinct patterns: a narrow border, a larger motif with scrolling vines, and a decorative element reminiscent of a vase. The patterns are superimposed on a grid, making them easily adaptable to various needlework projects. This print is a testament to the Renaissance appreciation for fine craftsmanship and the beauty of intricate patterns.
