Fragment of cotton fabric with a twill weave. Blue background, resist printing. The design is formed of a series of parallel vertical lines with intersecting floral motifs, flowing out from a vase. The vase's position in one line coincides with the height of the branches in the adjacent lines, meaning the motifs of the lines mix together. Clearly influenced by the Renaissance.
