This page from Giovanni Andrea Vavassore's *Opera Nova Universali intitulata Corona di racammi*, dating back to 1530, features two intricate designs for embroidery. The patterns are outlined in black ink against a white background and represent the influence of Renaissance decorative motifs on textiles. Vavassore was a master of textile design, and his intricate patterns were widely admired in his time, influencing both textile production and artistic trends.
