Esemplario di lavori
A 1532 Venetian pattern book by Florio Vavassore, published in Italy for embroiderers and needleworkers. Its woodcut pages show rectangular panels of geometric counted-thread motifs, vases, a winged lion and tower, and a title page with scenes of women at needlework. Designers can draw on the dense repeating grids, diamond lattices and interlaced knotwork as ready-made surface patterns.
