This print showcases a remarkable piece of art from India, dating back to the year 1601 or 1650. The creator remains unknown, adding an air of mystery and intrigue to this exquisite cover. Displayed in the renowned Art Institute of Chicago, this bedcover is a true testament to the rich cultural heritage of India. The bedcover features a stunning floral pattern meticulously embroidered with cotton in chain tambour work stitches. Its vibrant colors and intricate design are truly mesmerizing, making it a perfect decorative addition to any bedroom or living space. Attached silk and cotton tassels adorn all four corners, adding an elegant touch. Crafted using various weaving techniques, three panels joined together create this masterpiece.

Lining made from cotton plain weave ensures durability while maintaining its luxurious feel. This extraordinary textile reflects the skilled craftsmanship that has been passed down through generations in India. It serves as a reminder of the country's rich artistic traditions and its ability to produce timeless works of art that continue to captivate audiences worldwide.
