India is without a doubt the birthplace of european textile printing. The first examples were probably brought to Europe during the 15th century, but it was not until the 17th century that the first brightly colored calico cloths reached europe. The original of "coromandel" is an indian hand painted and printed wood block print. Typical in its use of two dimensional graphic imagery and delicate colors this represents perfectly these first Indian prints.
