Modern Austrian Lace
beautiful collection of lace
—a collection too little
known, but more varied,
more beautiful, and more
valuable than that of
South Kensington and
other Museums. No work
was too arduous, no journey
too difficult, for Professor
Storck where there was a
probability of obtaining
good specimens, very many
valuable ones being
obtained from peasant
women who had received
the lace as presents from
ladies who had no further ■
use for it. The collection
of lace made by Professor
Storck has been further
enriched by Hofrath von
Scala, the present Director
of the Austrian Museum,
who is now busy in col-
lecting specimens of old
Irish lace.
The late Empress of
Austria did a great deal
