Synopsis

Jacobean Embroidery: Its Forms And Fillings Including Late Tudor (1913) by Ada Wentworth Fitzwilliam is a comprehensive guide to the art of Jacobean embroidery, a style that flourished during the reign of King James I of England (1603-1625). The book provides detailed instructions and patterns for creating a variety of Jacobean embroidery designs, including floral motifs, animals, and geometric patterns. It also includes information on the materials and techniques used in Jacobean embroidery, such as crewelwork and stumpwork. Additionally, the book features a section on late Tudor embroidery, which influenced the development of Jacobean embroidery. The text is accompanied by numerous illustrations and photographs of finished embroidery pieces, as well as close-up images of stitches and techniques. This book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the history and techniques of Jacobean embroidery, as well as for those looking to create their own Jacobean-inspired embroidery designs.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Op. I
PLATE 1
HIS plate was sketched from a very old strip of Tudor work, measuring about 5ft. 8in. in length and 1ft. 8 in. in width. Each leaf was about 22in. long and 19in. across. The strip had evidently been part of a bed valance, and, as far as one could tell-for it was much faded-had been worked in two shades of wool only-dark indigo blue and bright green; the latter had faded, almost everywhere, to a soft mignonette colour.
