At the eastern edge of France, near the borders with Germany and Switzerland, lies the historic city of Mulhouse, which was one of the country’s main centers of the textile industry in the early 19th century. Today it houses the Musée de l'Impression sur Étoffes, a museum entirely dedicated to the history of textile printing from the 17th century to the present day.

Few fashion designers of serious standing have not visited this amazing temple of fabrics. This extraordinary book is its keystone. Its wide pages feature magnificent images from its collections, spanning four continents. A story of a fascinating artistic and technological adventure across the world, starting from its origins in India and reaching the most contemporary creations.

Across two volumes, you will discover nine lavishly illustrated chapters that bring to life a glorious chronological and thematic description of the museum’s unprecedented retrospective on the art of printed fabrics. And that journey begins in India, with the first volume dedicated to the origins in the Far East of the designs that made these prints famous and how they arrived at European factories. You will also find stories and images here addressing artistic innovations such as toile de Jouy and the development of new color ranges.

In the second volume, the reader will become familiar with the incredible inventiveness of manufacturers and their designers throughout the 19th and 20th centuries. Explore the striking paisley motifs and the intense passion for nature and flowers that emerged under the Second Empire, before artistic avant-gardes and modernity deeply evolved the art of textile prints.

With almost 900 pieces reproduced with the highest possible quality, you will travel through the extraordinary tapestry of motifs and colors that make this book an unparalleled source of inspiration for all kinds of textile art lovers.
