In trockenen Tuchern - Gewebtes und Besticktes aus dem Osmanischen Reich (German, Paperback)

A hundred years after the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the Museum Funf Kontinente is showing the special exhibition In trockenen Tuchern! Gewebtes und Besticktes aus dem Osmanischen Reich [A Stitch in Time! Woven and Embroidered Textiles from the Ottoman Empire]. The accompanying publication provides an insight into the different aspects of inhabitants' life during the Late Ottoman Empire, based on selected textiles and everyday items from the collections of the Museum Funf Kontinente as well as the private collections of Ther and Middendorf. Together with their rural counterparts featuring woven red and blue patterns, the napkins and hand towels from the 18th to 20th century, artistically embroidered with blossom, fruits, or architectural elements, accompanied people from cradle to grave and bear impressive witness to their craftsmanship. Today these textile objects are a significant part of the cultural legacy of Turkey. Text in German with partial Turkish translation.
