Indienne des Indes, Côte de Coromandel, 1st quarter of the 18th century. 11 beautiful fragments recreating the original drawing relationship on 4 registers of exotic flowers, giant roses or carnations on 4 registers and inscribed in ogives formed by rinceaux of small leaves. Décor painted and dyed by mordanting and reserving in black, blue, yellow, green, violet and several shades of red and roses on an incredibly fine canvas. Furniture fabric no doubt inspired by Western silks, previously used for the dress, finely joined pieces including a small fragment of a European Indian. *The stamp of the English India Company or United East India Company (VEIC - the U of United being represented by a V) indicates a European export product, but this type of design can also be found on indiennes destined for local rajahs or exported to Siam or Java. Other marks may be those of the printer in Tamil and Telegu.
