Ffoulke, Charles M · 1907 · Washington : [s.n.] · 4 pictures

A 1907 monograph by Charles M. Ffoulke, published in Washington, documenting an eight-piece series of Flemish tapestries on the Judith and Holofernes story, with their original decorative borders, likely for collectors and museum study. The four pictures show framed tapestry scenes of biblical figures at tables, interiors with curtains and columns, and a military tent scene, with heavy scrollwork, fruit garlands and putti in the borders that a designer could take as models for ornamental framing.
