Book Synopsis French Printed Cottons, 1760-1830 by : Sarah Grant
Book excerpt: Originally referring only to the famed fabrics of Jouyen-Josas, 'toiles de Jouy' has today become the catch-all term for the delightful printed cottons preferred by the aristocratic elite in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century France, made famous by the palaces of Marie-Antoinette and Empress Josephine.
