EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning Cotton Palempore or Bed Cover from Fatehgarh, Uttar Pradesh, India. The intricate design and vibrant colors of this textile piece are truly mesmerizing. This particular bed cover is part of the esteemed Collection of the Textile Manufacturers of India, compiled by John Forbes Watson and published in 1866. John Forbes Watson was a renowned figure who dedicated his efforts to documenting textiles from various regions, including what was then known as India. His extensive work resulted in eighteen volumes containing seven hundred samples, most of which were taken from the Paris Exposition Universelle of 1855. The Cotton Palempore or Bed Cover featured in this image represents not only the rich cultural heritage but also the exceptional craftsmanship prevalent during the 19th century Indian School period. It serves as a testament to the creativity and skill possessed by artisans at that time. Currently housed at the Harris Museum and Art Gallery in Preston, Lancashire, UK, this textile artifact continues to captivate viewers with its timeless beauty. Its patterned cotton fabric exudes elegance while showcasing traditional Indian designs. As we admire this remarkable piece through Bridgeman Images' lens, let us appreciate its historical significance and recognize it as an invaluable contribution to our understanding of textile artistry in South East Asia during that era.
