Morning Modelbuch (4/16/2019)

Another of the lace mounts donated to the Met in 1938 by Marian Hague with 16th century lace. The pattern is from Giovanni Battista and Marchio Sessa’s 1557 _Le Pompe_. I’ve also added a second pattern from the second volume of _Le Pompe_. The French National Library has both books bound together. http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/btv1b8622058x https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/226404
