Copperplate-Printed Cotton

Cleveland Museum of Art

Red and white cotton fabric with copperplate print, titled "Copperplate-Printed Cotton", by an unknown artist. The fabric features a repeating pattern of red designs on a white background. The designs depict various elements including trees, plants, birds, and people. The people in the design are shown engaging in activities such as sitting, standing, and walking. The fabric appears to be a type of toile de Jouy, a style of printed cotton fabric that originated in France. The fabric is shown in two pieces, one larger than the other, both with rough, cut edges. The background of the image is gray.
