This artwork, "Il Monte. Opera Nova di Recami, page 7 (recto)" by Giovanni Antonio Bindoni (1500-1650) is a page from a book of embroidery designs. Dating back to 1557-1570, it demonstrates the intricate patterns and techniques used in 16th-century embroidery. The gridded design suggests a geometric pattern, possibly for a floral or decorative motif. This piece is part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection in New York, providing a glimpse into the artistry and craftsmanship of Italian embroidery during the Renaissance.
