a picture of the burial shroud of St. Bathilde of France.

 From the book of Textiles and Clothing from the Museum of London, pg 81.

The first paragraph on the left hand side says that " the 'Shroud of St 
Bathild"... has bands of huckaback bordering a mian web of tabby with a 
looped pile"...

Does anyone know where I can find a picture of this on the web?

I'm trying to define the word "band" here.  Is it a sewn on band, a woven 
in band?
