Embroidered Textiles: Traditional Patterns from Five Continents : With a Worldwide Guide to Identification - Brossura
Sinossi
Embroidery has been practiced for thousands of years across the continents. In the West, traditions have been at the mercy of trade and fashion, but in much of the rest of the world, embroidery continues to be rooted in ancient beliefs and superstitions.This book is the first to examine in detail the symbolism of the motifs and designs that give life to these marvelous textiles. It features specially taken photographs of a dazzling array of embroideries from all over the world and a lively and informative text that explores the relation of designs to different religions, traditions, and cults. A comprehensive regional guide to the identification of embroidery and advice on collecting and international collections make this an essential book for anyone interested in the textile arts.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. Embroidery has been practised for thousands of years throughout the world. In the West, traditions have been subject to trade and fashion, but across the continents of the less-developed world, embroidery continues to be rooted in ancient beliefs and superstitions. This book examines in detail the symbolism of the motifs and designs of these textiles. Photographs are supported by explanatory line drawings and maps which show the colours of the intricate designs. Each motif has its own symbolic or magical significance. Also featured are a comprehensive regional guide to the identification of embroidery throughout the world, advice on collecting and details of international collections. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR002082410
