Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book examines the history and evolution of tapestry weaving in the capital of the Duchy of Lorraine, the city of Nancy. The author, an esteemed historian, has unearthed invaluable archival documents that shed light on the region's significant contributions to this art form. During… the 16th and 17th centuries, Nancy emerged as a prominent center for tapestry production, rivaling the renowned workshops of Flanders. The author meticulously traces the establishment of manufacturing facilities and the patronage of the ducal court, which supported a thriving community of highly skilled weavers. The book delves into the specific techniques and styles that characterized Nancy's tapestries. From the vibrant colors and intricate designs of early pieces to the more elaborate and narrative compositions of later periods, the author provides a comprehensive overview of the region's artistic output. This insightful study not only adds to our understanding of tapestry weaving but also enriches our knowledge of the cultural and economic landscape of Lorraine during this era. It highlights the importance of local craftsmanship and the patronage of the nobility in fostering the development of artistic excellence.
