"La Vera Perfettione del Disegno di varie sorti di recami," (The True Perfection of Design of Various Kinds of Embroidery) is a 1567 publication by Italian artist Giovanni Ostaus (1507-1607) showing designs for needlepoint embroidery, featuring intricate geometric patterns. This page, page 32, showcases a series of repeating bands, including Greek frets, zigzags, and circular motifs. The detailed linework and use of shading demonstrate the technical skill and sophistication of 16th-century embroidery design.
