Die Vorrichtungskunst der Werkstühle is a German-language technical plate book on loom mechanisms for silk and wool manufacture, compiled by Johann Georg Bartsch and printed in Vienna in 1832 for weavers and textile manufacturers. The plates show numbered figures of weave diagrams, loom frames, heddles, shafts and treadle linkages drawn in fine line on cream paper, offering a designer a clear record of how woven structures were built up on the loom and of an early technical drawing style.
