This woodcut, a page from the 1564 publication *Splendore delle virtuose giovani*, is a decorative design by Italian artist Iseppo Foresto. The page, one of many from the book, showcases a style common to the Renaissance. The intricate, swirling vines and leaves are typical of this era, while the use of a grid pattern adds order and structure to the design. Foresto's work often features a mix of playful figures and fantastical creatures, seen here in the small human forms flanking a central vase on the right side of the page. The image is a testament to the artistic talent of the period and the evolving trends in decorative art.
