Morning Modelbuch (12/3/2019)

I couldn’t resist this painting and pattern because the treatment is so very extra with all the pearls. Portrait of a Woman by Lucas Cranach the Elder, dated around 1530 https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Datei:Lucas_Cranach_d.._-_Bildnis_einer_jungen_Frau_(Galleria_degli_Uffizi).jpg

Pattern from the 1544 version of Peter Quentel’s _Eyn New kuenstich Moedelbuech_ (Lotz #17.) The dolphins are flipped, but it certainly seems reminiscent. There are 4 distinct books published by Quentel and I tend to forget that. I need to dig into this one more frequently. https://gallica.bnf.fr/ark:/12148/bpt6k1510823d/f62.image
