Excerpt from La Tapisserie

La peinture en matières textiles, tel est le nom que l'on a donné, et avec raison, à la tapisserie; car si, par la franchise du procédé, elle l'emporte sur la broderie, qui est surtout un travail de patience et qui admet d'in nombrables retouches, elle l'emporte aussi sur elle'par la liberté d'interprétation laissée à ses représentants. Saufaux époques de décadence, deperversion du goût, le tapissier traduit, interprète, transpose, dans d'autres tons, les modèles, les cartons, pour nous servir du terme technique, que le peintre compose pour lui; c'est méconnaître les lois de son art que de lui demander de copier servilement un tableau ou une fresque.
