Floral print 1799

This floral print, created by Hartmann et Fils in 1799, showcases a repeating pattern of stylized flowers, leaves, and branches, executed in shades of red, brown, and green against a white background. The design, reminiscent of Indian chintz textiles, exemplifies the popularity of exotic motifs during this era. This textile, now part of the Metropolitan Museum of Art's collection, is a testament to the artistic and cultural exchange that characterized the late 18th century.
