This book deals with the secrets of the weaving of Metsovo, which are
presented in a simple, yet elegant manner. The subject is not only
treated from a strictly technical and aesthetic point of view, but
consideration is also given to the various interpretations of it, its
symbols, and role of weaving as a factor in the everyday life of
Metsovo. Representative examples of domestic textiles and traditional
costumes from the Collection of the Laographic Museum of the Baron M.
Tositsa Foundation are described in succinct, authoritative texts,
accompanied by impressive, lavish illustrations, which introduce us to
the beauty of the art and tradition of the weaving of Metsovo.
