==19th century== [[File:Galahad grail.jpg|thumb|''The Attainment'', one of the [[Holy Grail tapestries]], [[Morris & Co.]], 1890s]] In the 19th century, [[William Morris]] resurrected the art of tapestry-making in the medieval style at [[Merton Abbey Mills|Merton Abbey]]. Morris & Co. made successful series of tapestries for home and ecclesiastical uses, with figures based on cartoons by [[Edward Burne-Jones]]. The set of six ''[[Holy Grail tapestries]]'' of the 1890s, repeated a number of times, are the largest they made, and perhaps the most successful. Traditional tapestries are still made at the Gobelins factory in Paris, and the royal factory in Madrid. They and a few other old European workshops also repair and restore old tapestries; the main British workshop is at [[Hampton Court Palace]], a department of the [[Royal Collection Trust]].
