La Révolte des Passemens [The Revolt of the Laces]
Book · 89 pages
A bilingual reprint of the satirical 1661 prose-and-verse tale La Révolte des Passemens, in which laces, embroideries and points personified as characters rebel against Louis XIV's 1660 sumptuary edict banning gold and silver trimmings. The book gives the original French text, an English version by Hazel Dunning Sommerhoff, and explanatory notes assembled by Gertrude Whiting. It also includes the French edict of 27 November 1660, a list of the lace characters, and illustrations of period engravings and portraits. Plates of seventeenth-century laces (Genoese, Ragusa, Venetian, Aurillac, English, Flemish, Alençon, gold and silver bobbin lace) are included.
