An illustrated survey of peasant art in the Austro-Hungarian Empire, edited by Charles Holme and published by The Studio in 1911. Essays by A. S. Levetus, Dr. M. Haberlandt and Aladár Kriesch-Körösföi cover Austria, Hungary, Transylvania, Croatia and Slavonia. They are followed by several hundred plates arranged by region (Upper and Lower Austria, Salzburg, Tyrol, Bohemia, Moravia, Silesia, Galicia, Dalmatia, Bosnia, Bukovina, Hungary, Transylvania and Croatia). The plates show houses, carved and painted furniture, pottery, metalwork and jewellery, costume, embroidery, pillow lace and hand-woven carpets. The weaver's interest lies mainly in the embroidery, lace, carpet and costume plates, since there are no weaving drafts.
