Morning Modelbuch (10/4/2019)

We haven’t had a gentleman in a black suit with fabulous white collar in a while. Portrait of a Boy dated 1550 by Pier Francesco Foschi, inventory number 58MR00034 at the Accademia Carrara https://www.lacarrara.it/catalogo/58mr00034/

I usually link to Pagano when looking at the transitional tagliato/cutwork patterns, but there are several of the same type of designs in Giovanni Ostaus’ 1557 _La vera perfettione del disegno di varie sorti di recami_, as the book is sort of a best of compilation with a wide variety of styles of pattern. https://www.metmuseum.org/art/collection/search/354910
