This woodcut, "Ein new getruckt model Büchli...Page 11, verso," from 1529, is a page from a pattern book by Johann Schönsperger the Younger, a renowned German artist of the 16th century. The intricate geometric designs, featuring repeating motifs of diamonds and crosses, were likely intended for use in textiles, embroideries, or other decorative arts. This page, preserved in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, offers a glimpse into the world of pattern design during the Renaissance, highlighting the influence of geometric motifs on artistic expression.
