Morning Modelbuch

Matteo Pagano again, from _Trionfo de Virtues Libro Novo_ published in 1563. Most of these seem like they’d be helpful for Illuminators as much or more than embroiderers. We’ve got snails, a demon that would be great inspiration for Titivillus (the bane of scribes,) dragons, a phoenix and a pelican, and several variations on scrolling banners for mottoes. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/662245
