This volume discusses the symbolism and real significance of the beautiful but enigmatic tapestries of the Paris Cluny Museum. Every work of art is rooted in culture and history, and their interpretation can provide insights into the universal nature of the human being. Answering to a continuing interest in unicorn culture, the author concentrates on how the depiction of the unicorn bears relation to the development of the human soul.
