"Essempio di recammi" is an illustrated page from a 1530 book titled "Opera Nuvoa che Insegna a le Donne a Cucire, a Raccamare, et a Disegnare a Ciascuno" by Giovanni Antonio Tagliente, which was aimed at teaching women the arts of needlework and design. The page is a woodcut illustration showing four women engaged in different textile practices, such as weaving and embroidery, alongside a male figure who appears to be offering instruction. The illustration depicts a scene of domestic activity and skill-sharing that was relevant to women's lives in the early 16th century.
