| | History of Tapestry and fine hand woven tapestries |
 | | Between the hand-woven tapestry art of classical antiquity and that of the Thirteenth century however, a long period of darkness and artistic void intervened in western culture, and for over a thousand years weavers were content to leave the making of large wall paintings to artists and embroiderers. | | | The tapestry art created at that time was the work of men permeated with religious consciousness and with the warm comprehension of the omniscience and omnipresence of their God. | | | Tapestry art was even thought to have covered the walls of the Parthenon. |

| | Tapestry |
| | The story of tapestry as a widely used form of decoration would have ended there had it not been for the revival of interest in medieval life and art in the nineteenth century. | | | During the Renaissance, easel painting came to transcend the other arts, giving painters license not only to design tapestries but also to deny weavers freedom of interpretation, for the instructions were much more precise than the cartoons from which medieval weavers worked. | | | According to some authorities, the purpose of Renaissance pictorial art in woven tapestry was to produce illusions of what reality should be. |
