Neu künstlichs Modelbuch: Von allerhand artlichen und gerechten Modeln, auff der laden zuwircken

Jobin, Bernhard · 1598 · 14 pictures

A 1598 German pattern book by Bernhard Jobin, made as a model book for lacemakers and embroiderers working with bobbin-lace patterns in the German-speaking lands. Its plates are printed pattern panels of dense dotted ground with bold dark motifs, and a designer could draw on their repeating borders, floral scrolls and geometric lattices for textile, lace or ornamental surface work.
