Schonsperger, Johann · 1529 · 15 pictures

A 1529 German pattern book by Johann Schonsperger, printed in Augsburg for embroiderers, lacemakers and weavers, offering woodcut models for drawn-thread and loom work. The pages show rectangular blocks of geometric repeat patterns in dense black-and-white grids, with stars, diamonds, interlacing bands and Greek key borders that a designer could adapt directly for textile, tile or lattice surfaces.
