Coromandel
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.
