A fine and rare example of block printed and quilted mordant resist dyed linen dating from the mid to late 18th century.
Worked in madder red which contrasts beautifully with the pale indigo of the floral design. With finely drawn urns of flowers surrounded by foliage and drapery.
Worked onto a hand loomed linen with a beautiful tactile quality and strong design. This rare textile would benefit by being stretched and mounted, a service we are pleased to be able to offer from our specialist textile conservation studio. Please ask us for details.
