About this title

Synopsis

A fabulous collection of photographs of rarely seen embroidered animals from the the Embroiderers' Guild Collection.

This fantastic book showcases the prestigious Embroiderers' Guild's huge collection of embroidered animals through the ages. Featuring photographs taken especially for the book, items are displayed in full along with detailed images that show off the stunning variety of creatures at their best. Rarely exhibited in public, these beautiful and important embroideries that span the centuries are now available for everyone to see.

Dr Annette Collinge's informative extended captions for each of the pieces give information on the provenance where known, and evaluate the quality of, and variety in, each of the works from her expert perspective.

"Needlework enthusiasts will find much to linger over... Without Collinge's skilled effort, most readers wouldn't have access to this elegant and fascinating members-only collection." BOOKLIST
