"Neues Bild-und Musterbuch" (New Picture and Sample Book), created in 1771 by Johann Michael Kirschbaum, is a printed book cover from Heilbronn, Germany. This elaborately ornamented title page showcases an ornate border composed of scrolling floral motifs, and tools used for the weaving of linen, such as bobbins, shuttles, and spools. The text on the cover announces the publication of the book, which is meant to promote the art of weaving linen. This book would have been a valuable resource for weavers and other artisans, as well as those interested in textile arts.
