Ce est ung tractat de la noble art de leguille ascavoir ouvraiges de spaigne... page 19 (verso) 1527 - 1540

This woodcut print from a book by Willem Vosterman, titled *Ce est ung tractat de la noble art de leguille ascavoir ouvraiges de spaigne...*, depicts two intricate needlepoint patterns. The top pattern is a simple grid, while the bottom pattern is a more complex geometric design. This book, printed in the Netherlands between 1527 and 1540, served as a guide for needlework. Vosterman's illustrations demonstrate the popularity of needlepoint in 16th-century Europe, and this work continues to inspire and educate embroiderers today.
