Morning Modelbuch (11/16/2019)

Little springs that come diagonally out of the base line like the ones on this handkerchief are more likely to be drawn into the back of the books, but there are some lovely pinks/carnations in Rosina Furst’s 4 volumes of _Neues modelbuch_ published beginning in 1660. http://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k1510855c
