The book delves into the origins of these rugs, which were typically crafted using materials such as wool and hemp, and were often adorned with intricate designs and patterns. Sautier also provides insight into the techniques used by these artisans, as well as the social and economic context in which they worked. Through a combination of historical research and stunning photography, Italian Peasant Rugs offers a fascinating glimpse into a lesser-known aspect of Italian folk art and craft.
