This page from "Eyn Newe kunstlich moetdelboech alle kunst" (A New Artistic Pattern Book of All Art) was printed in 1532 by the German artist Peter Quentel. The page depicts two geometric patterns of black and white dots and lines, which were likely intended as designs for embroidery or other crafts. This intricate woodcut provides a glimpse into the artisanal practices of the early 16th century and the influence of decorative patterns on art and design.
