Step back in time to seventeenthcentury Paris with Thrse, a talented young girl who lives and works at the Gobelins Manufactory, where Europes greatest artisans make tapestries and luxury objects for King Louis XIV. Even though girls are not trained on the great looms there, Thrse practices on a small one at home and dreams of becoming a royal weaver someday.This charming story follows Thrse as she carries out an ambitious plan with the help of family, friends, and the artisans of the Gobelins. The intricate craft of tapestry weaving is illuminated, and surprises await Thrse, her parents and brothers, and even the king himself. Childrens book author Alexandra S. D. Hinrichs here breathes vivid life into a delightful tale full of fun twists and an appealing cast of characters.Original paintings by awardwinning artist Rene Graef playfully illustrate the book, as well as the many steps involved in the creation of the famous Gobelins tapestries, from dyeing wool and making silver thread, to painting and copying the elaborate designs, to the delicate art of weaving.Thrses fictional adventures are inspired by real people, the actual Gobelins Manufactory, and a beautiful tapestry that hangs today in the J. Paul Getty Museum.
