Tapestries / by Sheen, Rosita,author.;
Includes bibliographical references and index.What is a Tapestry? -- Ancient and Medieval Tapestries -- Patrons and Creations -- Renaissance Heyday and Decline -- The Modern Rebirth of Tapestry -- Glossary -- Further Reading -- Places to Visit -- Index.Tapestries have been an enigmatic form of artwork for hundreds of years, with the intricate symbolism of their woven narratives still fascinating viewers today. Unicorns and fantastic beasts rub shoulders with well-heeled aristocrats; famous biblical and saintly stories are played out; allegorical figures, gods and goddesses recline in classical landscapes; and the arms and military achievements of wealthy patrons are depicted in sparkling glory. However, far from being an outdated craft, tapestries continue to be woven to this day, both by talented amateurs in their homes and by highly skilled artisans in studios and workshops around the world. In this beautiful illustrated introduction to the history of tapestries, Rosita Sheen reveals the fascinating story of these masterpieces, exploring their conception, manufacture, and symbolism right up to the present day.
