The earliest dummy boards are thought to date from the early 17th century and the earliest known record of one comes in the form of a Flemish Sketch of 1615 by Anthonio de Succa. Initially these decorative boards experienced a vogue in the Low Countries, with their popularity in England being established later and outlasting that of their European counterparts.
