English embroidery

Kendrick, A. F. (Albert Frank), 1872- · 1905 · London : G. Newnes, limited ; New York, C. Scribner's sons · 1 picture

A 1905 survey of English embroidery by A. F. Kendrick, published in London by G. Newnes and in New York by Scribner's, covering English church vestments and needlework for a general readership. The single picture is a photograph of a semicircular embroidered panel, densely worked with small figures and foliage in a dark-and-light pattern that suggests the crowded, repeating motifs of medieval needlework, useful to a designer studying dense pictorial textile layouts.
