This small, blackwork print, created by Hans de Bull in 1592, showcases five intricate motifs, including two horizontal panels and three vertical panels, all rendered in a delicate black ink. These motifs are likely intended for decorative purposes, suggesting their use in various artistic applications, perhaps for the creation of more elaborate designs or for inspiration for embellishing objects. The print, housed in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, is a testament to the meticulous attention to detail and the intricate beauty of blackwork patterns popular in the late 16th century.
