New Künstlichs Modelbuch (Page 47 recto) 1600

This page from Bernhard Jobin's "New Künstlichs Modelbuch" (1600) features two intricate patterns for embroidery. The top pattern is a geometric design, with repeating motifs of stylized leaves and flowers within a grid framework, while the bottom pattern showcases a more organic arrangement of scrolling vines with delicate blossoms. The book's title, meaning "New Artful Pattern Book", reflects its purpose - to provide inspiration for needlework artists. This particular page showcases the intricate patterns popular in the early 17th century.
