hsifengTextile Conservation and Research. A Documentation of the Textile Department on the 20th Anniversary of the Abegg Foundation.
Bern, Schriften der Abbeg-stiftung, 1988
Awhile back I managed to ILL this book (I love my librarians!) - I took a whole lot of photos with the intention of posting them online for discussion and future reading. Then our laptop hard drive died. I lost a boatload of research and articles I have written over the years. But thankfully, all the photos I took of the Abbeg book were still on the digital camera!
So, now that I have learned my lesson and *will* be webbing my stuff from now on (*beating head against desk*) I am going to start putting up sections from the book for folks to consider and discuss.
I will be breaking this down into 'single subjects so that the number of pictures per entry don't get totally out of hand.
Sadly, I don't have the book here to confirm why I thought this item was specifically from the 16th C - perhaps I only took the photos because it appeared to have the right shape to be a potential Unterhaube of some sort for a woman of Germany in this time period. *shrug* If anyone has more information, please let me know. If not, I guess I will be *forced* to ILL the book again....*grin*
