This book is the first in English about the important Danish weaver Anna Thommesen (1908-2004). Although Thommesen has long been an established name in Danish modernism, her significance has never been fully explored.

Lavishly illustrated, this book offers a close look at Thommesen's oeuvre, the connection of her work to nature, and it examines her artistic position in the light of biographical material and other sources.

Special attention is paid to Thommesen's large-scale public commissions, including her weavings for the Danish Parliament (1968-1972) and for Roskilde Cathedral (1975-1977). The book also addresses the teaching she undertook and Thommesen's work in relation to both Danish modern design and the field of 20th century textile art.
