Ancient Russian Ecclesiastical Embroideries is a fascinating treatise looking at the history and development of embroidery in Russia, with a special focus on that which is related to the church. Dating back as far as the twelfth century, ecclesiastical needlework has had a rich history and significant influence on Russian culture. This volume looks at this in detail, making it highly recommended for those with an interest in the history and development of embroidery in Russia. Contents include: Ancient Russian Ecclesiastical Embroideries, The Staritzky Workshops, The Godunov Workshops, The Stroganov Workshops, etc. Many vintage books such as this are increasingly scarce and expensive. It is with this in mind that we are republishing this volume now in an affordable, modern, high-quality edition complete with a specially-commissioned new introduction on embroidery.
