"This book follows clues in the author's hunt for a group of missing artistic masterpieces. Susan Groag Bell recounts both her long search for a series of sixteenth-century tapestries that celebrated women and her efforts to understand the meaning of these tapestries for Queen Elizabeth I of England and the other powerful women who owned them. Opening a new window on the lives of noblewomen in the Renaissance, on the brilliantly colored tapestries that were the ultimate artistic luxury of the day, and on the popular and influential writer Christine de Pizan (c. 1364-c. 1430), Bell pursues an absorbing mystery from centuries past to today." "The tapestries around which this story revolves are linked to Christine de Pizan's Book of the City of Ladies, originally published six hundred years ago, in 1405. The book honors two hundred women: warriors, scientists, queens, philosophers, and builders of cities."--BOOK JACKET.
