This page from Peter Quentel's *Eyn Newe kunstlich moetdelboech alle kunst* (1532) presents three intricate decorative designs with elaborate intertwining branches and foliage. This woodcut, part of a larger pattern book, exemplifies the detailed and stylized motifs typical of 16th-century German ornamentation. The repetition of these ornamental patterns, intended for use in various decorative applications, reflects the aesthetic sensibilities of the period. The book's title, *A New Artistic Model Book of All Arts,* highlights its significance as a source of inspiration for artisans and craftspeople.
