The MMA has several, some gory, some romantic. Devon In a message dated 3/22/2010 5:22:39 P.M. Eastern Daylight Time, hottl...@neo.rr.com writes:
Hello All! A few months ago, a link was posted to Milanese lace with a falconer. This was very cool stuff!! Over the weekend & quite by accident, I was rummaging around in worldcat.org & stumbled across "Milanese Bobbin Lace with Hunting Scenes", an article in Burlington Magazine for Connoisseurs dated March 1918 by P. G. Trendell. The citation noted that it was available online via jstor.org with a password. Unfortunately, the Erie library is not a participant but Edinboro University is. When I contacted their reference dept. this morning, they actually had the mag & very generously scanned 3 pages that they sent via e-mail. Lots of animals, fanciful flora & archers!! Does someone on the list know more about this?? If anyone wants the scans, please contact me off list & I'll attempt to forward them.
