This page from a 1532 embroidery pattern book, “Libbretto nouellamete composto per maestro Domenico da Sera...lauorare di ogni sorte di punti,” by the Italian artist Domenico da Sera, features a complex repeating pattern of geometric shapes. The intricate designs, rendered in delicate lines of white stitches against a black background, are a testament to the artistry and skill of the Renaissance era. The book itself is a valuable resource for understanding the techniques and aesthetics of embroidery during this period. The pattern is likely intended to be stitched on fabric, creating a beautiful and elegant textile piece.
