Reviews
"The most substantial work to appear on the subject of opus anglicanum since the monumental tome of 1938 by A. G. I. Christie, English Medieval Embroidery . . . . An indispensible and up-to-date resource both for specialists and for all those curious about the aesthetic beauty and liturgical function of textiles in the Middle Ages."--Warren T. Woodfin, Marginalia Review of Books, "You do not need to know a chasuble from a cope to be dazzled by the artistry on display here, photographed in extreme close-ups or unfurled across double-page spreads."--Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, Ornament, "Superb, razor-sharp reproductions which give a proper sense of the beauty and power of the medium... its intellectual value is undoubted."--Paul Binski, Art Newspaper, "Superb, razor-sharp reproductions which give a proper sense of the beauty and power of the medium... its intellectual value is undoubted."--Paul Binski, Art Newspaper "There are over 160 full colour illustrations found herein and a wealth of historical information offered in the essays that accompany each chapter. If you are interested in Opus Anglicanum or the inheritance of medieval English Catholic culture, this is a work you will want to pick up for your collection."--Shawn Tribe, Liturgical Arts Journal "You do not need to know a chasuble from a cope to be dazzled by the artistry on display here, photographed in extreme close-ups or unfurled across double-page spreads."--Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, Ornament "A rich introduction to an extraordinarily complex artistic practice. . . . The production values of [this] catalogue are exemplary."-- Choice, "Not only a catalogue and scholarly monograph, but a visual feast, with magnificent colour plates on virtually every page, bursting at the seams with titbits of fascinating information. It's the sort of book that makes you want to hug yourself with glee: revelatory and as exquisitely produced as the medieval embroidery it celebrates."--Juliet Barker, Literary Review, "Superb, razor-sharp reproductions which give a proper sense of the beauty and power of the medium... its intellectual value is undoubted."--Paul Binski, Art Newspaper "You do not need to know a chasuble from a cope to be dazzled by the artistry on display here, photographed in extreme close-ups or unfurled across double-page spreads."--Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, Ornament "A rich introduction to an extraordinarily complex artistic practice. . . . The production values of [this] catalogue are exemplary."-- Choice Shortlisted for the 2017 Berger Prize for British Art History, "Superb, razor-sharp reproductions which give a proper sense of the beauty and power of the medium... its intellectual value is undoubted."--Paul Binski, Art Newspaper "You do not need to know a chasuble from a cope to be dazzled by the artistry on display here, photographed in extreme close-ups or unfurled across double-page spreads."--Kimberly Chrisman-Campbell, Ornament "A rich introduction to an extraordinarily complex artistic practice. . . .

Synopsis
In medieval Europe, embroidered textiles were indispensable symbols of wealth and power. Owing to their quality, complexity, and magnificence, English embroideries enjoyed international demand and can be traced in Continental sources as opus anglicanum (English work). This sumptuously illustrated book draws on new research and detailed photography to offer an introduction to their design, production, and use. Essays by leading experts explore the embroideries' artistic and social context, while catalogue entries examine individual masterpieces. Medieval embroiderers lived in a tightly knit community in London, and many were women who can be identified by name today. Comparisons between their work and contemporary painting challenge modern assumptions about the hierarchy of artistic media. Contributors consider an outstanding range of surviving examples, highlighting their exquisite craftsmanship and exploring the world in which they were created., An introduction to the design, production and use of luxury embroideries in medieval England (c. 1200-1530) In medieval Europe, embroidered textiles were indispensable symbols of wealth and power.
