A two-page review in The Magazine of Art of Madame Isabelle Errera's catalogue of her collection of about 400 historical textile specimens, which she donated to the Musée du Cinquantenaire in Brussels. The collection runs from the fourth century onward, with most coverage of the twelfth to eighteenth centuries. The review notes that several specimens match fabrics painted by Old Masters such as Bronzino, Moroni and Ottaviano Nelli, and illustrates three of them: gold cloth with looped red velvet, gold cloth and red velvet, and silk and blue thread with gold.
