Tapestries: Their Origin, History And Renaissance (1912) is a comprehensive book written by George Leland Hunter that explores the history, origin, and revival of tapestries. The book is divided into three parts, with the first part discussing the origins of tapestries and their development in various regions such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The second part focuses on the history of tapestries during the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, highlighting notable tapestries and their significance in art and culture. The final part of the book explores the revival of tapestries in the 19th and early 20th centuries, with a focus on the Arts and Crafts movement and the role of artists such as William Morris in the revival. The book is richly illustrated with photographs and drawings of tapestries, making it an ideal resource for anyone interested in the history and artistry of this unique form of textile art.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
