Studio delle virtuose donne: Doue si vedono bellissimi lauori di punto in aria, reticella, di maglia. Dissegnati da Isabetta Catanea Parasole
Studio delle virtuose donne is a 1597 Italian pattern book of lace designs by Isabella Catanea Parasole, produced in Italy for women who made needle lace, reticella and knitted work. Its pictures are white-on-black woodcut lace borders and motifs, with repeating scrollwork, rosettes and flourishes that a designer could adapt for ornamental edging, bands or decorative pattern repeats.
