Five pages extracted from the French work L'Art à l'Exposition Universelle de 1900, comprising the title page and the "Broderies" section (pp. 492-495) of the chapter on art textiles. The author reviews the embroidery exhibits at the Paris Exposition, praising Japanese silk embroidery and criticizing German, Russian, Romanian, American and French pieces as weak or merely imitative of older models. It discusses Hungarian and Russian revivals of historical embroidery, and includes one illustration of a tapestry woven in the Trondhjem atelier.
