A short popular booklet in the Enjoy Your Museum series that surveys the history of tapestry from the 14th to the 19th century. It follows changes in subject and style from Gothic hunting and religious scenes through Renaissance, Rubens, Teniers and 18th-century French work (Gobelins, Beauvais, Aubusson), then Morris's Merton Abbey looms. It also notes tapestry weaving in Egypt, Persia, China and Peru, and explains true tapestry technique: weft-faced weave, slits, high-warp and low-warp looms, cartoons and shading.
