Morning Modelbuch (3/25/2020)

Fantastic 17th century needle lace border at the Met with detailed figural cartouches. There’s the ever popular hunting motif and then an unusual and interesting architectural vignette with exceptional buildings. Accession Number:33.90.18 https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/222710

I’ve linked a hunting scene pattern, but there’s nothing quite like the second scene, so I included some other interesting figural patterns. The link is to the 19th century Wasmuth facsimile of Vecellio as it has 4 of the 5 volumes. _Corona delle nobile e virtuose dame_ (Lotz 116-119) originally published beginning in 1591 through 1593 https://archive.org/details/diekronederkunst00vece
