A guide to old and new lace in Italy [microform] : exhibited at Chicago in 1893
A handbook to the Italian lace exhibit at the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, written by Countess di Brazz\u00e0 and published in Chicago by W.B. Conkey for fairgoers, collectors and lacemakers. Halftone photographs show the author seated with a child and an album, and Venetian architecture such as a carved doorway flanked by armored figures on pedestals, alongside lace specimens useful for pattern detail, period portraiture and ornamental frames.
