I went to this exhibit too. I think that the made it themselves. There are
still places in Florence that used VERY old looms and weave all by hand. I
got to visit one in Nov 2008 when there for the symposium in honor of Janet
Arnold. It was quite fascinating.

Fr
Allison,
Great pics! Especially the details.
The fabrics were all supposed to be woven on the same (type) antique looms
as the originals.
There was a wonderful booklet they handed out in NYC with pics of many of
these garments.
