The Lady and the Unicorn

by mojacar @ Friday, Jun. 26, 2009 - 21:10:19

written by Tracy Chevallier. A story about some flemish weavers, who follow the design of a painter into a tapestry. Good description of how they were made and how the weavers lived.

It did prompt me to look up unicorns on the internet - a lot of facinating stuff.

This author seems to make a practice of being inspired by a painting and creating a story round it.
