Weaver at work on a tapestry on a vertical loom in the Atelier Haute Lisse at the Gobelins Manufactory, a historic tapestry workshop, at Le Mobilier National, which commissions and conserves state furniture, in the 13th arrondissement of Paris, France. The haute lisse technique has been used at Les Gobelins since 1826, where tapestries are woven by hand on vertical looms, by weaving the weft threads between the vertical warps, using mirrors to check the progress and a traced pattern behind.
