A view beneath the flat loom (basselisse) on which three weavers from the Robert Four workshop in Aubusson are producing Françoise Petrovitch's tapestry "Hommage à George Sand" to mark the 150th anniversary of George Sand's death. The completed sections of the 23-metre-long tapestry are rolled up again and can only be seen from the back. Even the weavers will not be able to see the complete work until the day it is removed from the loom. Rue Madeleine, Aubusson, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France
