A 1906 International Studio article by Eva Lovett reviewing the newly arranged lace collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, organized by the Viennese lace expert Frau Stephanie Kubasek. It surveys the chronological display, from Coptic openwork caps and darned netting (Netzarbeit) through drawn and cut work, Punto a Reticella and Punto in Aria needle laces, to Venetian points and early bobbin lace. Illustrated with six photographs of museum pieces, including German knotted net, Italian punto a maglia quadrata, and sixteenth-century needle point.
