A Short History of Tapestry: From the Earliest Times to the End of the 18th Century is a comprehensive book by Eugene Muntz that explores the history and evolution of tapestry as an art form over the centuries. The book covers the earliest forms of tapestry-making in ancient civilizations, such as Egypt and Greece, and traces the development of the craft through the Middle Ages and the Renaissance. The author also explores the role of tapestry in the courts of Europe, particularly in France and England, during the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries. Throughout the book, Muntz provides detailed descriptions of the techniques and materials used in tapestry-making, as well as the cultural and historical context in which each piece was created. With numerous illustrations and photographs, this book is an essential resource for anyone interested in the history of tapestry and its enduring legacy as a form of art and decoration.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
