This page from the 1608 pattern book, "Schön newes Modelbuch", by the German artist Sigismundus Latomus (1599-1632) features two intricate geometric designs, each composed of repeating motifs within a grid framework. These patterns, likely intended for embroidery, showcase Latomus's skill in designing ornamental patterns, characteristic of the early 17th-century artistic style. The meticulous detail and balanced composition of these designs demonstrate the popularity of decorative arts in the period.
