A 1912 Connoisseur article by Ronald Clowes describing the Paris collection of Monsieur G. Seligman, focusing on medieval needlework and Venetian lace. It discusses an English chasuble of about 1300 with a Jesse Tree design, other English embroideries of the 14th and 17th centuries, a German 14th-century fragment with lacis and cross-stitch that may come from a sampler, and Venetian rose-point and gold-thread lace collars and strips. Illustrated with halftone plates of the pieces, including a bag of English work from about 1700.
