●內容簡介——

對都鐸王朝紡織品的詳細研究，突出了它們的奢侈之美及其對皇家宮廷、時尚和品味的影響

在都鐸王朝的宮廷裏，紡織品在裝飾和儀式中無處不在。掛毯、刺繡、地毯和掛件比繪畫和其他形式的裝飾藝術更受推崇。在16世紀的歐洲，精美的紡織品非常昂貴，普通公民甚至許多貴族都無法購買。這本圖文並茂的平裝版講述了漫長的都鐸世紀中紡織品的故事，從1485年亨利七世登基到1603年他的孫女伊麗莎白一世去世。它將精心製作的掛毯、進口地毯和奢華的刺繡置於都鐸王朝宮廷和政治動盪以及全球貿易擴張的背景下。特別關注的是 "金布之野"，這是一個在1520年舉行的為期兩週的盛大節日。即使在半個世紀之後，這種非凡的作品仍然是都鐸社會對財富、品味和最終權力的最有力的投射。

A detailed study of Tudor textiles, highlighting their extravagant beauty and their impact on the royal court, fashion, and taste

At the Tudor Court, textiles were ubiquitous in decor and ceremony. Tapestries, embroideries, carpets, and hangings were more highly esteemed than paintings and other forms of decorative art. In 16th-century Europe, fine textiles were so costly that they were out of reach for average citizens, and even for many nobles. This spectacularly illustrated paperback edition tells the story of textiles during the long Tudor century, from the ascendance of Henry VII in 1485 to the death of his granddaughter Elizabeth I in 1603. It places elaborate tapestries, imported carpets and lavish embroidery within the context of religious and political upheavals of the Tudor court, as well as the expanding world of global trade. Special attention is paid to the Field of the Cloth of Gold, a magnificent two-week festival held in 1520. Even half a millennium later, such extraordinary works remain Tudor society’s strongest projection of wealth, taste, and ultimately power.
