Tapestries, their origin, history and renaissance
A 1912 survey of European tapestry by American decorative-arts writer George Leland Hunter, published in New York by John Lane for collectors, dealers and interior decorators. Halftone plates reproduce whole hangings — court scenes, battles, Gothic verdure and Alexander cycles — each framed by dense floral and figural borders that can be lifted as ready-made ornamental frames and crowd scenes.
