It would be wonderful if you could add resources so we could study who made these types of tapestry, how they were paid, how difficult the sewing was, etc. The people who created this art are so anonymous. I realize that isn't your deal but perhaps a future video?

That was fascinating! I had no idea that metal or metal wiring was used ever at all in textiles! Shows how much I know! The metal ribbing used to accentuate the dress was amazing.
