Illustrated guide, in French, to a 1964 exhibition of exotic textiles from the collections of the Antwerp archaeology museums and the Museum of Ethnography. After forewords by J. Wilms and F. Smekens, Adr. G. Claerhout surveys decoration techniques: applied work, embroidery, painting, and the resist-dyeing groups (pleat, stencil, tie-dye, tritik and plangi, wax-resist batik, discharge, and ikat on warp and weft). The guide includes schematic figures of looms, basic weaves and resist processes, a bibliography, and a catalogue of 24 plates with museum numbers, provenance (Indonesia, Japan, Mali, Peru, Northwest Coast and others) and dimensions.
