Timeline of Flemish Weavers

Source A: Historical overview of Flemish weaving

'The Flemish weaving industry flourished from the 12th century, reaching its peak in the 16th century, characterized by innovations in textile production and trade expansion. Weavers migrated from rural areas to cities, establishing guilds to regulate quality and prices. The industry faced decline in the 17th century due to economic shifts and political conflicts.'

Source B: Excerpt from a historian on the industry

'The success of Flemish weavers was driven by their ability to adapt new techniques, such as tapestry weaving and fine linen production, which made their textiles highly sought after across Europe.'
