A German-language picture booklet from the Badisches Landesmuseum Karlsruhe presenting a selection of historic textiles from its collections. After a foreword and an introductory essay on weaving and tapestry technique, materials and dyes, it reproduces 32 black-and-white plates: late antique Egyptian tapestry weaves, Italian silk brocades and velvets, medieval and Renaissance embroideries, needle lace, Persian and Asian pieces, Brussels tapestry, French damask and a printed textile. Descriptive catalog entries give technique, materials, thread counts, pattern repeat sizes, origin and date for each plate, and a glossary explains terms such as Doppeldurchbruch, Kettenstich and Lasurstich.
