"Essempio di recammi, page 2 (verso)" is a woodcut print from 1530 by Giovanni Antonio Tagliente, an Italian artist known for his work in the field of embroidery patterns. This particular page shows two intricate geometric designs for needlepoint, featuring a repeated pattern of diamonds and interweaving lines, typical of Renaissance embroidery. The print, now in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, serves as a valuable resource for studying the history of embroidery and the aesthetic preferences of the 16th century.
