This printed page from a 1532 pattern book by Domenico da Sera, an Italian artist working between 1500 and 1599, provides instructions for creating intricate embroidery patterns. The page features a repetitive geometric design with a black background and white lines forming a complex geometric pattern. The patterns are presented in a clear and concise manner, making them easy to follow for embroiderers. This page is a valuable resource for understanding embroidery techniques and the history of needlework in the Renaissance period. The piece is housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
