To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
And Elijah said unto her, ^^ Fear not; go and do as thou hast said: but make me thereof a little cake first, and bring it unto me, and after make for thee and for thy son. For thus saith the Lord God of Israel, The barrel of meal shall not waste, neither shall the cruse of oil fail, until the day that the Lord sendeth rain upon the earth." The figures are of heroic size, and the border interesting, marking, as it does, an epoch in the art of framing a tapestry. The Italian artists were the firs...t, we believe, to surround their tapestries with compositions introducing the human figure, and in the 17th century we find these figures grown ampler and fuller under the influence of Bubens. " We confess a certain weakness for the borders of this pe- riod. They show a great abundance of invention with a cer- tain robust style, which allies itself marvellously with the Digitized by VjOOQiC Tapestries. 31 compositions, a little pretentious, but which, after all, is but a reflection of the architecture." From M, DarceVs admira- ble article on the Borders of Tapestries.
