This woodcut print from 1529 by Johann Schönsperger the Younger, features a page from a book that details different patterns for embroidery. These designs include geometric patterns with repeating motifs and are rendered in black and white. The pattern book would have been a useful tool for craftspeople in the 16th century, offering them a diverse range of designs to copy. The delicate detail of the patterns and the fine lines of the woodcut process highlight the beauty of craftsmanship during the Renaissance era.
