This woodcut, created by Peter Quentel in 1529, is a page from a pattern book, showcasing intricate designs for needlework. The page depicts a series of geometric patterns, including squares, triangles, and diamonds, executed in black and white. These patterns would have been used for embroidery or other decorative needlework techniques, serving as a guide for artisans of the time. The image is part of a larger work, "Eyn new kunstlichboich," a testament to the artistic and practical knowledge of the 16th century.
