The Apparel Mart Tapestries in Dallas by Bjørn Wiinblad

Series of folded pages that describe the tapestries commissioned to hang in the great hall of the Dallas Apparel Mart, based on the Arabian Nights stories. The first page provides background, with the handwritten text of the letter written by artist Bjørn Wiinblad describing the inspiration for the images; the second page discusses the process and shows images of the illustration versus the tapestry. The other pages provide text from the Arabian Nights for each of the five themes selected for the tapestries, along with images of the illustration and the final tapestry.
