Newes Modelbuch in Kupffer (Page 10r) 1604

This page from *Newes Modelbuch in Kupffer* (1604) by Johann Sibmacher, a German artist, features two designs for embroidery. Each design is divided into a grid of squares that are then filled with stitching patterns. This type of pattern book, which displays a variety of stitching and embroidery designs, was popular in Europe during the 16th and 17th centuries. *Newes Modelbuch in Kupffer*, like other pattern books of this period, provides guidance for household artisans. It is a valuable resource for historians who are researching early modern textiles.
