Excerpt from The Tapestry Book Tapestries are not to be bought lightly, as one buys a summer coat, to throw aside at the change of taste or circumstance. They demand more of the buyer than mere money; they demand that loving understanding and intimate appreciation that exists between human friends. A profound knowledge Of tapestries benefits in two ways, by giving the keenest pleasure, and by providing the col lector - or the purchaser of a single piece - with a self protection that is proof against fraud, unconscious or de liberate.

Excerpt from Tapestry The number of threads of the warp to be included in a shoot or a course depends upon the shades: m a plain horizontal part the shoots are made as long as possible, to accelerate the work, but it often happens that a shoot only takes in two or three threads of the warp. The outlines of the drawing to be repro duced, and the} greater or less extent of the half tints, indicate the length of the courses, as well as the number of them to be ranged one above the other. In order to avoid the appearance of mosaic, which would inevitably result from the simple juxtaposition of the colours, the workman passes from one colour to another by shades which partake of both, and which are graduated like hatching. The right treatment of these stipples forms one of the greatest difficulties of the work, and the practised eye of the workman can alone determine where to begin or finish a shade.

Excerpt from A Short History of Tapestry The history of tapestry dates but from yesterday. Step by step archives have demonstrated the exist ence in France, the Netherlands, Italy, Spain, Germany, England, Denmark, and Russia, of numerous workshops, established in even the most obscure localities; while the store-chambers of princes and the treasuries of churches have revealed a large and varied collection of hangings long hidden from view. Admirable lists of tapestries, and of tapestry workers, moreover, have been drawn up, with all the detail and precision that can be desired.

Excerpt from The Bayeux Tapestry Elucidated One effect of the Conquest was to bring the people of England and Normandy into closer alliance than before. On the first occasion on which William returned to Normandy, after the battle of Hastings, he took with him, in honourable attendance, a considerable number of the Saxon nobles, b who were doubtless accompanied by their wives and daughters. Assisted by English ladies, as well as by those of her own court, Matilda, the wife of the Conqueror, probably at this time constructed the Tapestry which for many ages was preserved in the Cathedral of Bayeux. Never, perhaps, was so important a document written in worsted. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
