Italian Peasant Rugs is a book written by Albert Sautier that explores the history and cultural significance of traditional Italian rugs made by peasants. The book showcases a variety of different rug styles and techniques used by Italian peasants over the years, including flatweave, pile, and embroidered rugs. Sautier delves into the symbolism and iconography present in these rugs, as well as the social and economic conditions that influenced their creation. The book features beautiful full-color photographs of the rugs, as well as detailed descriptions of their construction and design. Italian Peasant Rugs is a fascinating look at the rich artistic heritage of rural Italy, and a must-read for anyone interested in traditional textile arts.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
